vide grenier


The vide grenier at Villeneuve sur Lot turned out to be quite a show.

Multiple stalls stretched along many streets.

Translated, it means "empty attic", or for Australians, a collective open-air garage sale.

Some of the vides greniers we've been to were ordinary but today was impressive.

Here is what I bought ...


antique (1898) bronze miniature reproduction of Roden's classic "The Kiss".


a gift for my gifted grandson in the UK


the seller wouldn't budge from 2 euro each


a double brass wall lamp with superb milk glass shades

  1. You're a sucker for a sale, Tony. Glad you enjoyed yourself. The new L'Agenda des Brocantes should be available soon and then we won't see you on sundays.

  2. Brocante addiction ... a well known syndrome among expats in France.
