July 3, 2016, posted by Michelle – I made a trip to the flea market (Les Puces) here in Lyon this morning. Sunday is the big day to go because all of the vendors have their booths open. It was a gorgeous day to browse through piles of linens and tableware, rows of furniture and tangled stacks of bric-a-brac.
I can always find interesting and beautiful things here and came away with, among other things, a set of quintessential red stripe vintage kitchen towels and an early 20th century mint condition majolica oyster server.
Next week I’m heading to the South of France in search of more linens and tableware to ship back to the U.S. Please check back with us as we plan on having our online shop up and running soon!
I see so many treasures! I bet it was so much fun to look around.
