ANTIQUE DECOR

Antique objects bring character and history to the spaces they occupy. Whether placed in a garden, a courtyard, a patio, or inside a home, they are true works of art.

At Provence Matériaux Anciens, we select antique stone pieces that reflect the craftsmanship of past generations. As a result, each piece features a unique patina, reliefs shaped by time, and a character that is impossible to replicate.

Our collection includes:

Whether it’s a renovation project, a landscaping project, or a contemporary design inspired by traditional materials, these pieces blend naturally into any style.

Check out a selection of decorative items below.

Why Choose Vintage Decorative Items?

Antique decor is more than just a decorative object. It tells a story, enhances a space, and helps preserve the charm of traditional architecture.

Over the years, the stone develops a natural patina that makes each piece unique.

Choosing antique decor means incorporating into your project a living material that spans generations.

What antique items should you choose for your home or garden?

Every space has its own identity. Depending on the desired atmosphere, certain decorative elements can help define the space or create a striking visual focal point.

Old Fireplaces

The fireplace is often the centerpiece of a home.

With its architecture, proportions, and the quality of the stone, it instantly adds character to a living room, dining room, or large living space.

Even when it is no longer used as a fireplace, it becomes a true decorative element.

Stone benches

Antique benches fit naturally into a garden, a courtyard, or under a pergola.

In addition to the paving and landscaping, they create resting areas where stone blends seamlessly with the vegetation.

Their durability allows them to weather the seasons without losing their charm.

Ancient Wells

The well is an iconic feature of historic gardens.

Today, it is often used to enhance a landscaped area or recreate the atmosphere of historic estates.

In addition, it can become a real focal point in the middle of a garden or courtyard.

Antique Troughs

Once used for agricultural purposes, troughs are now finding a new purpose in landscaping.

They can be turned into planters, fountains, or ponds.

Thanks to their size and authenticity, they blend in just as well in contemporary gardens as they do on historic properties.

Stone sinks and basins

Stone sinks and basins combine functionality and aesthetics.

They are perfect for a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, or outdoor space.

Each model has its own unique dimensions, shapes, and shades.

Fireplace surrounds

Antique fireplace surrounds are a testament to the craftsmanship of artisans of yesteryear.

Their designs, patterns, and reliefs add a touch of heritage to a restored fireplace or to an interior or exterior design project.

Why incorporate old elements into a renovation project?

Old materials lend a depth that new materials find difficult to replicate.

They allow you to:

to preserve the character of a building
to add an authentic touch to a renovation
to create a contrast with the new
to enhance both indoor and outdoor spaces
to give the project a distinct identity

How can you combine antique decor with other materials?

Decorative stone elements blend naturally with the other materials used in the home.

With natural stone

Fireplaces, benches, and wells fit right in alongside floor tiles, siding or natural stone steps.

This creates a sense of continuity in the materials, which enhances the project's harmony.

With wood

The aged wood adds warmth and contrast to the stone.

Parquet floors, exposed beams, or siding highlight decorative elements while creating a welcoming atmosphere.

With terracotta

Visit tomettes, wallets or old bricks naturally complement the stone elements.

Together, these materials create atmospheres inspired by Provençal homes and charming houses.
