Paris Flea Market
Regarding the June 17 Times Shopper column by Jennifer Merin pertaining to the Paris flea market Marche aux Puces:
My restored 1870 walled farmhouse in the Dordogne (nine hours drive from Paris in southwest France) is furnished in its entirety with items purchased from antique shops, fairs and flea markets. Marche aux Puces makes its Rose Bowl counterpart resemble a garage sale. It is sophisticated to the point that handling worldwide shipments, including insurance and all the necessary paper work, is routine.
Descriptive catalogues of Marche aux Puces are available in gift shops and newsstands of some Paris hotels.
