Dan’s Thursday Doors
I think there may be a few more French doors to find. The first two are doors from Beaune, a charming village in the Burgundy region not far from Dijon.
The everything going for it door – the surrounds, transom windows about and more carvings plus it is a grand door

This door also had carvings around it. There must have been a reason I cut them out. Perhaps the most of annoyances, something blocking the best photo point.

I think this looks like quite official doors in Avignon. I like Avignon and have been a couple of times.

One of the adventure day out while in Avignon was to go to Baux de Provence. A immense and superb stone hilltop fortress, the village has been painstakingly restored and less than 500 people live there. Baux is now a living museum
I love the wicker look

Stunning! France never disappoints

Just heavy doors. And yet, so obviously French.

I’m going to spend a few hours in Beaune in just over a fortnight. I wonder if I can find your doors?

That’s fabulous. I wish I could tell you where the little cafe we had lunch was. It was ever so good.
Wouldn’t it grand if you did find them, then you could knock and see if you could find out what went on behind the doors ๐

I love the paneled transom window in that first photo. The transom panels in the next two are also delightfully carved. That’s a lot of work to put into a small space. Great doors in this collection.
