Yesterday was the first day of spring, so it is the perfect time to visit a French garden pavilion designed by Pamela Pierce . . . 

"Designer Pamela Pierce and homeowner Kellie Hepper designed the French garden pavilion. Antique stone including door and window surrounds, all 18th-c. French [via Chateau Domingue]. Custom band detailing, French lanterns halved and  mounted flush. French antique urns and stone deer. Boxwood topiaries."

Ruth Gay is the owner of Chateau Domingue, "the premier source of European, architectural antiques," in Houston, Texas. Pamela Pierce often uses antiques from Chateau Domingue in her designs.

"Terrace of main house (Veranda Nov. - Dec. 2006) offers garden views. Vintage French chairs. DeLany and Long fabrics. French 19th-c. zinc urns on butcher's shop display tables. Antique French flooring."
