I love this antique iron bed from French boutique Atelier Charivari. They have just started shipping all over Europe - could be dangerous!

Une vestiaire métallique ancien. Do you think the French read the words old metal locker and think oh how beautiful that sounds? No, me either.

nice drawers

draw·er noun

1. boxlike compartment in furniture that can be pulled out and pushed in
2. drawers underpants

Is this not the most gorgeous undies and bra you've ever seen????

The top image from Appley Hoare Antiques is a Swedish Gustavian 18th century secretaire, and it reminded me of a funny story from a few years ago. A friend had moved back to the U.S. from Malmö, and had left us in charge of his belongings in storage. When the time came to ship everything over to him, we started emailing back and forth with the (Swedish) storage/removal company. When everything was almost finished we received an email asking if we also wanted the secretary shipped. We duly forwarded the query on and our long-time single friend quickly confirmed that he would indeed like the secretary shipped and wouldn't mind his desk shipped as well!
