EP71 Bargain Hunting at Saint Michel's Flea Market & Brocantes
Bargain Hunting at Saint Michel's Flea Market & its Brocantes ...
Who doesn't love a bargain especially when you don't want to overspend ...
The Hunt for a chandelier for the Salon in our Passion Project continues ...
We take Billy @ThePethericks to Saint Michel's Flea Market in Bordeaux and at the same time we check out the Brocantes that we have found many pieces that we still have today ...
The Bordeaux Antiques Fair is on but we prices were a bit too high ... so nothing better than a bit of Flea Market
Billy gets spotted & his expertise is needed ...
We see some amazing pieces from a stunning 18th century mirrors to 17th century painting ....
We had fun filming this and we hope you all like it x
Huge Thank You to everyone for their Love & Support x
Special Thank You to all of our amazing Patrons x

ANNA, THANK YOU!! These brocante videos that you have filmed are the FIRST TIME I could watch without getting seasick. Every other person who films these shops moves the camera too quickly -- except YOU! Cameras don't focus as fast as our eyes do, so if one stands there and moves the camera with their own head, it's too fast for us poor viewers to see without pausing the video. Now I can enjoy these lovely markets with you!

Yes, great job honestly! I don’t get sick from Billy, Michael, or Ryan’s filming, or on Chateau Diaries, and think Sean’s World actually does one of the best jobs of showing many up close items a whole shop or antiques fair, but Anna is giving him a run for it right now! With Anna and Sean’s camera, I feel like I am actually there, strolling through looking at items.

Anna, you have such great taste in antiques. Every time you find something you really like I keep wishing Edd would sneak back and buy it for you! ♥️
Billy was so gracious to the couple in the market. Edd is the ultimate Commando shopper, he lands has a quick reconnaissance and on to the next site. Oh Anna, I loved the sweet bib you found. The traveling commode was exquisite.

Wow, what beautiful antiques! Thank you so much for taking us along with you and Billy! Was nice that Billy was recognized...he deserves to be recognized as do you folks as well!
Love your antique trips and was extra nice with Billy. You and Ed are very interesting...thanks
Anna, your brocante filming style is very much appreciated... slow and steady with plenty of moments to stop and focus in on individual items. Such a pleasure to watch!!!
Anna, I just love your voice and commentary through the brocantes. What an enjoyable vlog.
Billy is a very nice man and was so gracious to that couple. Anna you are simply a kind and lovely woman. This was an enjoyable vlog with pretty music and beautiful antiques. You and Edd show good restraint when shopping. You must be rubbing off on Billy since he didn’t buy anything either. 💕
The dresser, with writing table 👌 is amazing!
Wow! The Wine Detective - a lovely vid - Thankyou x
Oh my goodness… I was shaking I saw so many wonderful things…. Especially at the last stop.
you three are a great shopping team and like the way you give prices. Love the humorous banter.
Thank you so very much for allowing me to travel afar vicariously and learn something new! I have such an itch now to go vintage shopping!
So many beautiful pieces. So nice of Billy to help out that couple. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Anna, you need a little bureau and a boudoir room, then you can get the desk and a dressing table!!! You need your retreats with two chandeliers and paintings, I can see it suiting you!!!!
Bordeaux is so beautiful. I want to be in France going to Brocante’s too. I’m going to have to come for a month, so I can stay with you, Stephanie x Philip and maybe the Pethericks will have me for a weekend. 🤣❤️We hear you perfectly. No mic needed. Great job filming Anna. Billy, I’m definitely Brocanting with you! 8k wow! Beautiful mirror though.
LOVE your antique shopping videos - I learn so much.
I adore the Brocantes shopping even though it drives me crazy to see so many things I would buy or that I think you should buy! Please keep including the prices and make sure we can hear you clearly! Hearing you today Anna was difficult. So much fun! Thank you! Sharing !🙌💗🙌
Love your tour of the stores my you have a wonderful day
All of you guys have become celebrities. I think I'm going to start a vlog and become famous lol I love all these channels I live for them daily I need to get a life lol much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖
Anna, I also have enjoyed your camera work and beautiful antique finds in the last 2 videos. Thank you!
Thank You Anna, I am just captivated by your videos, design and history, fashion, history, architecture history, art is a passion to me. This keeps me inspired. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!! All of you all!!!
That desk was amazing. Billy was gracious about being recognised.

Thank you for the lovely shopping trip. Anna you have a good eye for nice things.
You guys are social media influencers, people are recognizing you when you are out and about!!! Fun looking at all the antique stuff also fun to know how everything costs as I am beginning to understand prices between Euros and US dollars.
I enjoyed your camera work Anna, looking into the curio cabinet and taking time to enjoy!
Hi, Anna! The 16 or 17 century painting by F. Frank is a different F. Frank than the trumeau, from the painting over the mirror in the château upstairs bedroom that you are renovating. But, its a lovely piece of art never the less. I enjoyed this outing so much, thank you.
I'm like you Anna, I love looking at all the smalls, delicate pieces....beautiful trip.
A fantastic market. I love when you go to the brocantes
Omg I so love catching the premiere and then chilling back and watching these vlogs over and over again 🥰 loving my life full of Bordeaux life, chateau diaries, the pethericks, doing it by ourselves (when Michael vlogs 🤣🤣), chateau de brueil. Just such great people 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

You may want to add French Farmhouse Diaries to your list. I just discovered it last week. 🥰
That 7,800 Euro painting at 17:14 looks familiar, like I have seen it before in one of my art history or art courses back in college. Looks impressionist era. I don't recognize the artist's name or do I remember the title sadly, but I swear I have seen that image before. Or one very very similar. I'm in the U.S. and haven't been to France (yet), so it would have been in a book that I saw it, unless it has visited a museum in America and still would up on the market back in France. And that 17th Century painting of the Magi presenting their gifts to the Holy Family is beautiful! The colors are so rich. And only 4,800E. Amazing.
What a lovely video. I really do enjoying it when you guys go looking for treasures ☺️ some stunning pieces there! Great filming Anna 🥰🍷
I'm a reseller in America. I love these videos! Thanks.
Great treasures to be found. But I have to say I didn't see anything I liked. In the last video, I have to say I still like that sink Anna. Great seeing you guys all together again. LOVE from Chicago

@@twobluestripes Well I think that a few makers did them in this style, people copied each other as they do today. The one I bought my friend is almost identical but perhaps there are some differences here and there, hard to say. He uses it all the time, I'm not a fan of this style of furniture but it is ingenius especially in todays world where space is at a mimimum.
I love your trips into Bordeaux!! This Flea market was a lot of fun to see. Fun to see Billy's fans!! Interesting Couple!! Happy Thanksgiving from Vermont
Those bronze fish would have been delightful at an entrance to your chateau.
The desk would be perfect for my crafts.
That, was thee best brocanting day ever. I wished it did last all day. Thanks and cheers!
PG Tips Good vid liked all the browsing good to have a look round plenty there some pricey !!!!! I’m sure you will get something in the end . Take care 👏👏👏👍🙏🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧
i love the 60s tiletables and the tile sun plack
I've have seen the boat racing painting before. Impressionist copy of Manet, I think. It's a nice copy, but beware when buying art. My daughter can copy Vermeer very well.
I love ❤ you and your Family and Billy you are one of the best Vlogs, I wish I could win the Lottery so I could help you keep Versaille for yourself you have wonderful taste ❤ ♥

The painting of F. Frank really is vary nice. I would get the traveling desk, that is really nice too.
That was fun, Anna, Ed & Billy! Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic video. Thanks guys
The traveling commode and the 1950s desk that closes up were both excellent finds. I can imagine having that 1950s one in a craft room.
Thank you all Love going out with you🤗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love Sue ❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤

I like your eye in zooming in on things Anna. I like the same stuff as you. Is Billy short on Jackets and gloves. I got cold every-time he was on camera. Brrrr!
So fun to tag along with your browsing! Thank you! And honestly, I think I would have mustache envy too!! Probably a good thing I can't grow one. 😁
I have 2 of those folding desks from the 50s/60s!
Will the desk be a potential Christmas present for Anna? I could see uou working at it. 😉
So kind of billy
First paintong artist is Edouard Manet, as famous as Monet in France
Okay Mr. Petherick know it all, you’re right about the violin. But you didn’t look at the stick as we musicians refer to it. You’d call it a bow. They wear out and are often replaced by a bow that’s worth more than the instrument. By hundreds. Don’t walk away from a potential money maker. French bows are among the best.

the more Ed´s moustache grows the more he looks like Boycee from only fools and horses 🤣🤣🤣
forget the mirror.. I love the little painting to the left up high
