Antique shops Midi-Pyrénées

La Vitrine is an improved brocante. Its uniqueness stems from the atmosphere that emanates from the store, which opens onto the street and whose objects are placed on the gates of the uncultivated plot of land opposite. A dialogue is established between past and present, the history of objects and their continuity in our interiors, especially when it's a favorite. The mistress of the house brings back to life those neglected objects, or those that were once out of fashion, that people under twenty... Magali also intervenes at your request, when your quest concerns a particular object. She then sets out to find it. An eco-friendly approach... in a beautiful shop window!

Every month, China's paradise takes over the Allées François-Verdier. Familiarly named Les Allées, this gathering of about a hundred second-hand and antique dealers, created 30 years ago, sets up its stands in the shade of the hundred-year-old plane trees, from the War Memorial to the garden of the Grand-Rond. It is the largest antiques market in the entire Southwest. It is well known and attracts more and more visitors every year. So, if you also like to rummage around, glean, find the rare object, the signed but forgotten piece of furniture, the not so ordinary grandmother's pitcher... This is the opportunity to combine a walk in the open air and an open-air flea market...

This is a pretty little flea, located in the rue de la!! Here you will find, framed in a cosy interior, furniture from the 1960 th century to the s (tables, chairs, armchairs, convenience, cupboards, etc.) as well as tables, trinkets, crockery or household linen… Most of these furniture and objects have been cleaned and restored, but the range of prices remains wide and often reasonable. Know that you can estimate and even sell your tinkering and other trinkets… But above all, the originality of this flea is the possibility to drink a little tea, in time cups, in all intimacy, and thus to take the space for a few moments of the beautiful objects exposed…

Of Parisian origin, David Gabella opened an flea on the ground floor of a th-century building he acquired in the downtown Puy-l'Bishop. In the first piece entirely filled with exposed beams painted with lime, the walls of the old crépi leave again the apparent stones. Here everything is for sale except the small counter opposite the entrance: small pieces of furniture, dishwashers and trinkets, like a little need for copper cigars or a character's enhanced inkwell. The boutique is dedicated to outdoor decoration. David selects the items he accepts in deposit-sale.

About ten kilometres southeast of Naucelles, on a farm in the countryside, Hervé Lorin is originally a wine collector. Old and vintage vintages are no longer secret for the one who has long animated a chronicle on the wine on the antenna of France-Inter. If most of its activity takes place throughout France and Europe, in its succession of cellars located in the basement of a aveyronnaise building of character, this science well listens to any amateur, novice or enlightened. He talks about these drinks with science and passion, but does not show signs of knowledge. For him, knowing a wine is knowing his land and the man who did it. He travels tirelessly through vineyards, discovers new talents and shares them. If its cellar contains most of the large vintages, it is open to any quality product (more than 20 000 references in stock). And as wine is a pleasure that must be shared, Hervé Lorin hosts 17 tasting clubs and publishes a quarterly «Vineyard sheet» where one follows his discoveries, to read it, we already taste the agreement of such wine and such cheese, the perfect cellar is built. This small newsletter is a perfect addition to the MAIL that this winery often has.

His storefront already calls curiosity and it falls well, here it is far from being a bad defect! Digging, weighing, scanning in all the seams and studying the smallest detail are real qualities when you are in front of a professional like Didier. It is thanks to them that his den dedicated to antiques and antiques is a temple rich in treasures… and in emotions. From a very safe taste, it is through real scenes that it restores life to the furniture and objects of yesteryear. We love these associations where porcelain complements the 18 th tiles, the table arts and crystal glasses included. We're not going to lie to you; Ali Baba's cave looks crazy next to this store! Wooden furniture is almost buried under decorative objects, time jewellery, sculpted busts, clocks and lamps. It takes time to see, if possible, a council: let talk your heart. In the dark chandeliers and in the mirror of the colourful frames, it alone will guide you because your eyes will not know where to ask. Beautiful address that opens a window on a delicate heritage, to see absolutely.

But the fans of modern furniture will also find here objects to their taste, as Jean-Christophe Savard also manufactures solid wooden furniture tailored to suit all the interiors!

Take a look at Mr White, in his colourful shop!
