Brocante
In France, Brocantes are also known as Puces (flea), which is a term that originated in Paris back in the 19th century. Generally speaking, Brocantes are similar to flea markets and are regular weekend and seasonal events where a brocanteur sells a range of used items, from flea market finds to high-end vintage, textiles, and household goods. A French second-hand or antique store.
The term likely came from the Dutch word brok, meaning a piece or fragment. Collectors can find an assortment of this and that to repurpose or use as intended.
