In The French Kitchen
Stone walls, the scent of rosemary, huge beams across the ceiling, brightly colored French kitchen linens, and sunlight streaming through the window - this is the French country kitchen. Cannisters of French cooking herbs are at the ready, kitchen and dining accessories crafted of old French olive wood wait expectantly on the table, while decorative kitchen tea towels splash their bright reds, blues, greens and yellows around the room. A room to live in, cook in, gather in and enjoy, it’s easy to bring a bit of the south of France into your kitchen with our IN THE FRENCH KITCHEN collection.

Our organic cooking herbs are all naturally grown by a small company specializing in herbs and herbal products. Each of our herb selections is charmingly presented in a rustic jute pouch with the name of the herb printed on the front. For those who have visited France, they are exactly what you find in many Provence shops. Ours can be given as gifts or used in your own everyday cooking. Add tempting new flavors to just about anything -- vegetables, fish, soups, casseroles, stews, lamb, steaks, poultry, even ground beef -- you simply can’t go wrong with these aromatic, flavorful herbs.

Revered for their longevity (they can live for centuries), the olive tree has always been considered one of nature’s most precious and valuable creations. As its cultivation spread across the Mediterranean Basin, its uses ranged from personal hygiene, cooking food, fuel for lamps, medicine, perfume, soap, and even religious ceremonies, while its dense wood and dark swirling grain patterns made it a natural choice for carving. Both olive tree wood and olive oil were seen as something spiritual and divine. We’ve found beautifully grained, hand-shaped olive wood items made by French craftsmen who continue this tradition and proudly offer them to you. Utilitarian in nature, they’re also beautiful to behold and will be admired by all who see and use them.

Decorative kitchen towels from France are finely detailed and are most often used to add color and elegance. Displayed on the table or wall or used to line breadbaskets, their quality is admired and appreciated, and they are rarely used for serious kitchen clean-up. Offered in 8 different patterns and colors, these luxurious oversized tea towels will make a distinctive statement in any kitchen. They also make a wonderful housewarming or special occasion gift.
