Ceramic roosters, toile lampshades, chandeliers oozing Provencal charm -- these things I expect in a Pierre Deux sale. But mon Dieu, the purveyor of chateau-in-the-country furnishings has really taken a French twist with this pet perch. Perhaps believing that every poodle deserves its own settee, the company crafted this small-scale period piece upholstered in a paw-friendly fabric. About 2 feet long, Le Petit Settee is built more for lapdogs than your standard poodle. Originally $795, it is now $699. Other items are marked down more significantly, up to 70%, through Aug. 2.
