French Vintage Fabric Covered Boxes

French vintage fabric covered boxes are incredibly popular and are increasingly hard to to find these days.

I have just added some new boxes, covered in vintage French fabrics, to my website today www.thepaintedroom.co.uk.  The gorgeous vintage fabric was salvaged from a 19th century French quilt.

Originally old French fabric boxes were used to store handkerchiefs / gloves / lace etc but are equally useful today for storing trinkets, jewellery etc or for use as a sewing box.

You can see the boxes in my VINTAGE section.  I will also be listing, over the next couple of days, some new boxes covered with my own printed linens as seen in the above photo.
