My boyfriend and I were on the hunt for the perfect souvenir to bring home from Paris. I did some…read moreonline research for "brocantes" around the Montmatre area, and found about 4 highly rated ones, including Sophie Dupont Antiques. We'd gone to 3 other stores and found some great pieces, however none of them accepted credit cards, and we were short on Euro cash. We walked to Sophie Dupont Antiques toward the end of our search, hoping the store was still open and accepted credit cards. We got lucky! Upon entering the store, we were greeted by a lovely little black cat/chat noir, then by a very sweet lady who spoke as much English as I did French :) No issue communicating whatsoever - she was patient with my French. She let us know that the store was ours to browse. The store had an abundance of the types of QUALITY vintage pieces we were looking for, all at very fair prices. We were on the hunt for a beautiful French carafe or vase, of which there were plenty to choose from. We spent about 45 minutes browsing the many antique pieces and chatting with Sophie in between. It was great practice for my French. If you're a tourist on the search for a unique souvenir to bring home, Sophie Dupont Antiques is your place. It's worth going out of your way for - you're supporting a great business. The lovely lady and her 2 black cats/deux chats noir, Jazz and Alpha, helped make our visit to this store extra memorable. Sophie Dupont Antiques also accepts credit card, which is a huge plus for us since we had spent most of our Euro cash. We came home with a beautiful mini cream pourer and vase that I can't wait to put on display at home. It will bring back very fond memories of beautiful Paris, and spark joy when I look at it. Paris, je t'aime.

Lots of vendors but not all antique. Still worth an hour or 2 for any treasure hunter
