<\/p>\n
Society explorers and photographers have spent decades discovering and photographing the way of life along the Mediterranean coast.<\/p>\n
The National Geographic Provence Home Collection combines classic silhouettes with 18th-century world charm. Rustic paint finishes reflect the region\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s vibrant hues and bring to life the simplicity of the French countryside. Among the many new pieces for this collection is the National Geographic Leather Bed from Lane.
\n
\nOriginally used in 17th- and 18th-century chair construction, the wingchair bed design is firmly rooted in French tradition. Brass-finished, nail-head trim and hand-carved, solid-wood scrollwork are unique embellishments that conform to the style of the period.<\/p>\n
The National Geographic C\u00c3\u00b4te d\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Azur Home Collection is reminiscent of the 19th-century Louis-Philippe furniture style. Classic and symmetrical pieces blend with rich, vivid colors and soothing neutrals to capture the luxury and refined sophistication of the French Riviera. The C\u00c3\u00b4te d\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Azur Rug by Sphinx is an elegant illustration of the Louis-Philippe style. Hand-crafted from 100 percent wool, the rug features exquisite design and detail, with updated coloration and shading. Its traditional romantic design evokes the style of Savonnerie tapestries from centuries past.
\nNational Geographic\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s commitment to exploration, conservation and education is core to all the Society\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s endeavors.
