What are the Provincial Style essentials? French Knot's guide

Let's take you through our guide to the Provincial Style essentials. It's hard working out how to bring a style into your home, and often it's difficult working out which pieces are essential to bring together your home style. We've brought together our favourite decor pieces to help you to channel the timeless simplicity of French Provincial style into your home. Provincial is a gorgeous style that takes its inspirations from cottages of the French countryside, making use of natural materials, traditional designs and unique handcrafted pieces.

White Ceramics & Jugs

Provincial Style homes are known for including a wide variety of white accessories, as well as those that reflect the unique character of countryside life. White jugs are a gorgeous fusion of this, and work wonderfully both on their own and with faux florals to add a pop of natural colour. At French Knot we love the effortless versatility of white jugs. We have found that they're perfect as centrepieces for table settings as well as being perfect for serving drinks at the table.

Provincial Style Antique Silver

There's nothing like a good detail to add personality to a home, and antique silver accessories are a wonderful way to bring a classic vintage look to your home. Small silver accessories such as clocks, picture frames and candlesticks are essential pieces to bring the French Provincial style throughout your home and to give it that rustic charm.

Natural Wood

Natural wood is also an absolute essential to creating a home with this classic style. Natural materials are a wonderful way to make your home feel more grounded in nature, and can be used in a wide variety of products throughout - including tables, sideboards, chairs and of course the floors. At French Knot, we love using wooden bowls and serving boards to add that lived-in feeling, and they're great not only to use as decor but also as functional pieces in your home. Wooden bowls look wonderful accessorised with other pieces to create an overall look that is perfectly Provincial.

Ornate Glassware

Finally, ornate glassware is a perfect way to give your home that effortless chic of French Provincial homes. This is a gorgeous way to incorporate a luxe look, and can be done in a variety of ways - beautiful scalloped vases, lovely jars and trinkets and of course drinking glasses and jugs. These pieces really do make the final touch in your home. Beautiful glassware is a great way to add that extra element of elegance to your French Provincial rooms.
