    Merci de partager avec nous votre enthousiasme, votre goût pour les belles choses, vos connaissances et votre tenacité à réaliser et redonner toute leur splendeur à des lieux que le temps avait pratiquement rendu "invisibles".
    Thanks a lot for everything!

    Billy Petherick may be interested in the spiral staircase for when he does the two-story refractory in the convent.

    I love those architectural salvage places - here in Canada buildings aren't usually as old as chateaux but it's good to see the best parts of buildings preserved when the buildings themselves can't be. Don't let Billy see that spiral staircase.

    😳😯Ed & Anna! Has Billy seen that wood spiral staircase in the beginning of the video?! it would be perfect in the chapel leading to the choir loft they are going to restore!!!! 😍

    What a wonderful adventure this was. Yusuf is a delight and what he has in his store is more than amazing. I can't wait for the transformation of the abandoned house as a precursor to the next huge project. So exciting. Thanks for taking us along.

    Edd, I think the spiral staircase is perfect for Billy Petherick’s convent chapel. I love antique salvage businesses. The pieces are magnificent and knowing they will have a new life in someone’s home is wonderful, though it is sad that so many beautiful chateaus that housed these treasures were torn down or deteriorated from being abandoned. Joussef has a very special business. Thank you for the tour. xx

    Everything there is so beautiful. Since we've got very little even close in the USA, I'm in awe. It's so sad to think of the places these used to belong being gutted, possibly gone. They must have been incredible in their time. Seeing Edd imagining their original state brings them back to life for a moment.

      Actually, there are still many beautiful places still intact in Bordeaux and elsewhere in France. We lived on the Quai des Chartrons, 5 minutes from les Quinconces, all of the buildings are really beautiful and most of them still have all the original features. Bordeaux is a stunning city.

    I have been waiting for you to take us with you to Youssef's French Salvage Yard. I could spend hours wandering through there. What a lot of amazing pieces. As soon as I saw the spiral staircase I thought of Billy and his need for one for the convent. You only showed the one statue, but I spied a couple more on the other side as you came in, and again thought of Billy and the convent. The tapestry and mirror, I thought of Terry and Ash and their chateau restoration, Escape to the Dream, plus the paneling for their grande salon, although it maybe a bit too tall. I could probably find something for each of the chateau restoration vlogs I follow. 🙂
    Thank you, Edd and Anna for bringing us along.

      @karenniehues4786 Рік тому +2

      Only thing that may be wrong for Billy is I don't think it is tall enough. I wondered if he would be interested in the statue. I think it looked like Joseph holding Jesus. wasn't the convent St Joseph Convent?

    • @Rosarium2007
      @Rosarium2007 Рік тому +4

      @@karenniehues4786I think you are right about the old convent’s name. And the chapel at LaLande (Château Diaries) is also dedicated to Saint Joseph. As for the stairs, Billy could build a base with steps.

    The fireplaces are super, the sculpture of Jesus and child was beautiful. What a nice addition for the château that Billy is renovating but the cost is too much. Signed too, probable worth it.
    The stuff France has in all these places are wonderful. Nothing like them in the states and always so high in prices.
    Thank you both and so nice seeing you both and knowing your feeling better.
