Papillon Cachepot

We carefully curate each of our antiques from antique dealers, flea markets, brocantes, and local artisans in the United Kingdom and, occasionally, France. All of our collections pay tribute to the cultural traditions, craftsmanship, and lineage of this beautiful part of the world.

As a best practice, we leave items as-is which lets you, the buyer, decide whether you want to keep their timeworn patina. 

But, many of these antiques have traveled a long way before they reach your home. And, they have passed through a variety of climates which can be tough on these older pieces. To help them on their journey, we always treat wood furniture with a mild cleanser and conditioner intended for antiques. And, we will clean glass with a gentle glass cleaner. We do not polish metal pieces. 

If you have questions about which products are safe to use (on any of our antiques), we will gladly provide recommendations.

If you're searching for a particular piece, please email Elizabeth at elizabeth@lineagedesignco.com with as much detail as you can provide. And someone will be in touch to make sure we help you find the perfect piece.
