French Industrial Chic....fabulous!

As you might know ... I am splitting my time between shopping for and selling French vintage on Sunday Brocantes  and planning and booking French vintage shopping tours for our travel company 'Tour de  Broco'   (among other things.... : )

Last weekend we went on a scouting mission for Tour de Broco to check out a possible seller in order to determine if it would be a good stop to incorporate into our Fall tours.  We took a drive out to meet with Patrick and Christophe at their fabulous shop and 'atelier'..... and it was AMAZING!

We actually have a family connection to these shop owners and had last seen Patrick at our niece's wedding.  And a more distant 'six-degrees' connection is that Patrick has the son of my sister-in-law's King Charles Spaniel, Happy...who had a litter of KCS/Jack Russells.... and Patrick's pup is the brother to Diva and Buddy.... who are the pups of our other nieces....  ......Still with me?

So there he was..... waiting for us.



This was the first room in the warehouse style show-room ....

and right about now I noticed my heart was beating pretty fast....

Every where you looked .... FABULOUS!










I adore this lighting!!!

Their 'shop' belongs in a interior design book!  I could live there!



A little peek at behind the scenes where vintage re-claimed items are refurbished.


I really think this is the most amazing source of French Industrial Chic that I have ever seen! 
 Patrick and Christophe were wonderful!  

We are thrilled to add them to our 'must-go-to' list of stops on our Tour de Broco vintage shopping tours! 
If you are interested in booking a vintage shopping vacation in France--hop on over to 'Tour de Broco' or send an email to info@tourdebroco.com!

See you back here soon with more from this past weekend!

A bientot!
