About

 

The French Tangerine is a sweet little curated shop featuring unique home furnishings and distinctive entertaining pieces. The online shop seemed a natural progression after a few years of blogging and came to fruition in 2015. (The French Tangerine blog began in 2011 and is still maintained, though less frequently.)

After doing a blogpost in 2013 on aptware, a marbleized faience pottery from a small town in France, I was lucky enough to meet a highly regarded artisan residing in that region. Finding this elusive vendor was pure joy, and the thrill of providing access to this sought-after product was the impetus to expand from blog to shop. Since then, the French pottery in the shop has expanded to include several vendors from different regions of France, and continues to make up a significant part of shop sales.

Through the years, I have continued to streamline the shop inventory resulting in a personally organized collection, easier for the shopper to navigate, and more enjoyable for me to manage. Click here to read a post from 2021 with more shop updates! 

I am not a design professional, but I love inspiring interiors. I don’t entertain as frequently as I would like, but I celebrate the art of entertaining beautifully. I treasure the opportunity to share inspiration and fun finds!
