Helen spotted this kitchen on Instagram and we all fell instantly in love. This is the real deal, a properly original and simply beautiful kitchen. The lovely owner, Rebecca of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ohmyfrenchvintage\/\" target=\"_blank\">@ohmyfrenchvintage<\/a>, very kindly sent over some shots of the kitchen which she took one evening when the light was low and gave the room a sumptuous glow. No fancy camera or styling here, this is a real look at a real life deVOL Kitchen and to us it\u2019s just perfect, we wouldn\u2019t change a single thing. Thank you so much Rebecca, for chatting to me and telling me the story of your beautiful home and family \u2013 and for allowing me to share it here on the deVOL Journal.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21472\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px;\">\n<p><div class=\"sharer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21472\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-1200x900.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-1200x900.jpg 1200w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-300x225.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-600x450.jpg 600w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-768x576.jpg 768w\" alt=\"The perfect kitchen - real, authentic, original - we feel so happy to see our humble Shaker cupboards here.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><ul id=\"socialshare\"><!--<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-1200x900.jpg\"><\/a><\/li><li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a><li>--><li class=\"pt\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button?&url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&media=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-1200x900.jpg\"><\/a><li><\/ul><\/div><\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul><!--\n \t\n\n<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/The-perfect-French-kitchen-1200x900.jpg\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n \t\n\n<li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a>\n \t\n\n<li>--><\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>The perfect kitchen \u2013 real, authentic, original \u2013 we feel so happy to see our humble Shaker cupboards here.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Rebecca and her partner, Erwan, renovated their home \u2018Maison Philippine\u2019 from the ground up, beginning in July 2018 \u2013 it\u2019s a beautiful 18th century winery sitting in the rolling countryside of the Chalosse, South West France. \u201cThe house is named Maison Philippine after Saint Philippine, who, we were told, represents leading a peaceful, good and simple life and it couldn\u2019t feel more appropriate!\u201d says Rebecca. \u201cThis spot is truly magical, when we first saw it it was in quite a state, but before even opening the door we were hooked. I remember hoping desperately that we would find something we could work with on the inside as we had already made up our minds about the house just from being outside. The garden is planted with oak trees, many of them centennial, and the views from the drive overlook the undulating countryside to the valley below. It\u2019s a place where we can just be, where our kids can grow up in tune with the changing seasons.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21470\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px;\">\n<p><div class=\"sharer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21470\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg 1200w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-300x400.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-600x800.jpg 600w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-768x1024.jpg 768w\" alt=\"This original old fireplace is to die for, complete with a little wood burner and a couple of chairs to chill. \" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" \/><ul id=\"socialshare\"><!--<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><\/li><li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a><li>--><li class=\"pt\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button?&url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&media=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><li><\/ul><\/div><\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul><!--\n \t\n\n<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Beautiful-original-fireplace-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n \t\n\n<li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a>\n \t\n\n<li>--><\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>This original old fireplace is to die for, complete with a little table and a couple of chairs to chill.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This place reminds me so much of Cotes Mill \u2013 the beautiful grounds, those big wooden beams, exquisite original features, old walls so full of history and a small collection of humble deVOL cupboards \u2013 it just feels like home. Not to mention that Cotes Mill, like Maison Philippine, was a huge renovation project. \u201cAll our lives together, Erwan and I dreamt of owning an old, crumbling, characterful house that we could gently bring back to the gem it was before. We spent many hours imagining a place where our friends and family could gather, to share a meal, to relax, to write, to draw, play music. A place where great ideas are born over steaming plates of slow cooked food, lingering wines, fresh fruit plucked from the orchard, all served on a huge table with laughter and warmth. Where music floats into the starry skies above and each who enters is free to just be themselves.\u201d \u2013 In the beginning Rebecca and Erwan really had no idea just how big of a task this would be, but this was the dream that kept them going and got them through this project, stripping back this beautiful old place and painstakingly bringing it back to what it may once have been\u2026 and what an incredible job they have done.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21476\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px;\">\n<p><div class=\"sharer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21476\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ThePerfectSetUp-OhMyFrenchVintage-deVOL-1200x1145.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ThePerfectSetUp-OhMyFrenchVintage-deVOL-1200x1145.jpg 1200w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ThePerfectSetUp-OhMyFrenchVintage-deVOL-300x286.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ThePerfectSetUp-OhMyFrenchVintage-deVOL-600x572.jpg 600w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ThePerfectSetUp-OhMyFrenchVintage-deVOL-768x733.jpg 768w\" alt=\"An old portrait hangs perfectly above the stainless steel range cooker.

Erwan provides us with fresh bread each day and I cook pretty much most meals from fresh ingredients, locally sourced, so it was really important to us that the kitchen functioned well.

His area is jazz music, in particular the double bass, and we met one evening when I was invited by a mutual friend to sing. Erwan was supporting with the instrumentals, and the rest was history. We are lucky that since 2002, we have both always managed to work from home. Erwan also works with tech startups as a programmer, and has clients across the globe, USA, Australia, the UK\u2026. when he is not writing code for startups, he continues to play music and is also a successful artist (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sketchpowder.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/www.sketchpowder.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1552381536976000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGq16esyMmpLeUUKJh5JVRnAeJJzQ\">www.sketchpowder.com<\/a>). This is one of the big reasons why we wanted Maison Philippine to be a place where anyone could come and express themselves freely, be it through music, art, writing, ideas or simply conversation.

A furnished room always feels more authentic if this is considered and it\u2019s such a pleasure to work with customers who share this love with us\u2026 \u201cWe also wanted something that felt as if it had always belonged in the house, and that would complement our antiques and collection of vintage treasures.

After yet another long afternoon hankering after a deVOL kitchen, and finding nothing in this style in France (here the trend is still very much for slick lines and ultra modern fittings), I decided to get in touch with the deVOL team on the off chance they might deliver. It was a great move as to my delight there was nothing stopping the shipment of a kitchen to us here in the sticks in South West France. The whole process was just incredibly seamless from start to finish. Given that I had not even visited the showroom until after our kitchen was pretty much ordered, it was a risky undertaking to order an entire kitchen based solely on photos and the brochure, but to be honest, we really could not be happier. deVOL got it exactly right, were so professional, helpful and available for any question or detail.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21468\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 1210px;\">\n<p><div class=\"sharer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21468\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg 1200w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-300x400.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-600x800.jpg 600w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-768x1024.jpg 768w\" alt=\"A big table is always at the top of our kitchen wish list, just imagine warm summer evenings spent around this table, eating and chatting and playing. \" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" \/><ul id=\"socialshare\"><!--<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><\/li><li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a><li>--><li class=\"pt\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button?&url=https:\/\/www.devolkitchens.co.uk\/blog\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france&media=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><li><\/ul><\/div><\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul><!--\n \t\n\n<li class=\"fb\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dialog\/share?app_id=688330137993706&display=popup&href=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/?img=\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/LivingKitchen-OhMyFrenchVintage-1200x1600.jpg\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n \t\n\n<li class=\"tw\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=\/blog\/2019\/03\/12\/a-truly-authentic-devol-kitchen-in-south-west-france\/&text=A truly authentic deVOL Kitchen in South West France\"><\/a>\n \t\n\n<li>--><\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>For us, a table is always a must in a big kitchen, just imagine warm summer evenings spent here, eating and chatting and playing.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well, I really hope you have enjoyed seeing Maison Philippine and hearing Rebecca\u2019s lovely words about her home and her family as much as I have.
