Hello! Welcome! My name is Corey Amaro, and I am an American who has lived in France for nearly twenty-five years. One of my passion is going to the French brocantes, or antique markets. My brocante passion filled my house, closets, garage... and under the kitchen sink. When my house could hold no more I created an online French brocante shop.
I hope the brocante bug will bite you too, and that you will find a French old treasure or two to take home.
