ABOUT THE TRIP

SPRING 2025: March 12 - 17
FALL 2025: October 1 - 6
$3,750

We’ve been leading buying trips to Paris for more than a decade and we’re delighted to share our expertise with you during this week. The itinerary is fast-paced but we promise you’ll love it.  We will cover a twice-yearly antiques fair located outside of Paris where we’ll help you sift through a fabulous selection of antiques, lighting and art. We’ll introduce you to some of our favorite and most trusted vendors at Paris’s iconic flea market, Les Puces. We’ll also go off the beaten path to experience a delightful street market where you’ll find collectibles, fabulous art and smalls.

While we’re shopping, we’ll advise you on pricing, quality and provenance.  We translate when necessary and negotiate on your behalf with the vendors.  Most important, we handle all aspects of shipping your goodies back to Atlanta, including documenting your purchases, receiving them here in Atlanta and preparing them for pickup or delivery to you.  We also coordinate an escrow account on your behalf that you’ll use to send funds to us and our shipper.

Cost: $3,750

Includes four days of our guided Huff Harrington expertise to the Paris flea market (two locations) and a twice-yearly antiques fair.
 It also includes welcome bubbles and dinner, lunch at the antiques fair and a farewell dinner.

There’s plenty of playtime and you’ll have free time to explore on your own.  In fact, shortly before you arrive, you’ll receive our little “black book” of favorite haunts and secret resources to help you map out and plan ahead for your free time in Paris.

This trip does not include airfare, airport transfers or accommodations, but we will happily recommend trusted hotels or Paris Perfect vacation rentals.
