Open doors at Garnier Antiques

Past Sunday we went to the opening of the new showroom of the antique dealers Brigitte and Alain Garnier, at Damme near Bruges.
I can tell you the new location is gorgeous!
About 10 years ago Brigitte and Alain bought the old farm house and for several years they worked very hard on it! They restored the house with passion and with respect for authenticity.
Their new home looks fantastic. They can be very proud of the result!

I know Brigitte and Alain for a long time and every time I go to visit them , I'm always surprised of all the gorgeous antique pieces and of the amazing decoration talent of Brigitte.

That's why today I really love to share some wonderful images of their house and antiques!
But please, go to visit their website www.garnier.be and you will discover a wide range of antique items. Brigitte and Alain even have a wonderful home collection to present.
So if you are interested in one of their items, don't hesitate to contact them. They are used to ship around the world!

Congratulations to you, Brigitte and Alain!
