Paris Shops: L'Objet qui Parle

In the 18th Arr. Take a stroll down to number 86 on
(Near Rue D'Orsel)

There is a little beautiful and mysterious shop called
"L'Objet qui Parle", which very fittingly means "The Object that Speaks". It's name gives way to how intriguing the actual boutique is. The antique and inviting items spilling outside welcome you into this tiny little room filled to the gills with gorgeous antique crystal chandeliers, random taxidermy animals, religious paraphernalia among other intrigues. Just standing in this place for a minute will transport you to another place as it is bizzare and beautiful indeed.
Take a peek inside!
For a practical purchase I would look to the lighting fixtures as well as the antique kitchen wares. But if you're in the market for a stuffed owl there's a couple of those as well....
Tell Them Taryn Sent You! But don't be surprised if the items have a thing or to to say back to you!

And
right next door there is a little vintage shop that stocks mostly 60's and 70's garbs.
Tell them I sent you as well!
