Join us for a marvelous week in Paris and Normandy on the hunt for incredible French antiques and flea market finds! French linens, faience, porcelain, silver, copper cookware, paintings, garden decor, furniture, and all manner of vintage and antique items will be on offer. Elizabeth Seitz will guide you around the fabulous Chatou Antiques Fair just outside Paris, a target-rich market that happens only twice a year. Also included in our trip are guided visits to the main antiques markets of Paris itself and pop-up markets as our schedule permits. Also included is an introduction to the extraordinary Paris auction house Drouot where fabulous antique finds and bargains abound. And we’ll get plenty of decorative arts, antiques and cultural inspiration during our expert guided visit of a former private Parisian home filled with beautiful antique furniture, art, sculpture and objets d’art. Our time in Normandy features visits to incredible antique warehouses and brocantes just waiting for you to pick out lots of treasures.
So you can buy great French antique finds with confidence, Elizabeth will share her extensive insider tips and strategies for antique shopping in France as well as tried-and-true ways to pack your smaller items for your return trip home. To get your larger antique treasures home safely, you’ll be introduced to a French shipper who can transport your purchases from the various markets or you can arrange shipping on your own. Our group size is limited for a very special and intimate travel experience. You won’t want to miss our unforgettable week of French antiques and decorative arts in and around Paris and Normandy!
