This superb antique French sign reads 'Biscuiterie' and was chosen by Patricia Wells specifically to hang above Julia Child's oven in "Julia's Kitchen" at Patricia's home in Provence, Chanteduc. It will be familiar to past students of Patricia's cooking school. The fun red patina and triangular cut outs evoke festive garland flags. The letters were painted using a stencil and the sign would have been displayed on the façade of a biscuit shop.
This special sign will make a playful statement in any kitchen!
