Puciers, not tour guides
In Saint-Ouen, the people of the market are called puciers. The dealers, the porters, the families who have held the same stall for three generations, and the neighbours who know which alley opens first on a Friday morning.
For us it is also a family story. The Rudigoz family opened its stand at the Marché Paul Bert in 1986, and these alleys have been part of our lives ever since.
We are Flore Grannet and Augustin Rudigoz, and we are neighbours. We live in a new residence shaped like an ocean liner, the one everyone around here recognises, right across from the Marché Biron. We have been hunting these alleys for more than ten years, on Friday mornings before the crowds and on quiet Mondays, and we know who specialises in what.
Flore owns Monnette Paris, a Paris house that restores and engraves French vintage silverware, featured in ELLE, Le Figaro Magazine and Madame Figaro Japon. Every piece Monnette sells was found at a brocante or a flea market stall. That eye for provenance, condition and fair price is what we now put to work for you.
The Puces are the largest concentration of antique dealers in the world, around 2,000 traders across a dozen markets and five streets. It is also a place where a buyer in town for one weekend pays too much, misses the best stalls and then spends weeks working out the shipping. That is the problem we solve.
