Recently we desperately needed a break from everything we're all feeling right now, and what better place to escape than Paris? Instead of venturing out to the grand marchés aux puces, we decided to explore the charming local brocantes and village flea markets scattered throughout the city, staying close to our base near Place des Vosges. We discovered some truly amazing pieces, boxed them up, and had them shipped back to Vermont via DHL—just before the tariffs kicked in!
The Find
For your consideration: this charming wood panel measuring 15" square featuring an oil paint still life of a garden urn. Very chic, very French, and so very stylish! We were immediately drawn to the subtle color palette and beautiful simplicity of this piece.
Discovery Story
We found this treasure at a street market sale near Le Marais in Paris—one of those magical moments when you stumble upon something special while wandering the cobblestone streets of this historic neighborhood.
