We don't see the point in discrete, well-bred pieces that sit uncomfortably in a corner of a room. Instead, here's a pick of our favourite living room pieces - remarkable treasures at reasonable prices - to mix and match for a relaxed, effortless French style.

France-sourced, re-enchanted and hand-painted - from large to small - from French Grey to Bible Black - from chic to classique.

Simply: Objects to die for.
