LE PORTRAIT
An address with a clear point of view.
Located on Avenue Simon Bolivar in the 19th arrondissement, Mercato Bolivar is a curated consignment shop that operates in a category of its own. The space blends Japanese vintage fashion, kimonos, pre-owned luxury bags—including Chanel—jewellery, vinyl records and refurbished tech within an eclectic setting that evolves with each event. This is where Mercato truly distinguishes itself: the shop regularly organises thematic pop-ups such as "Made in Japan" or "Unique Pieces", transforming the hunt for treasures into something almost cultural.
Free workshops—calligraphy, kokedama, mochi-making—round out the programme, though spots fill quickly and advance booking is advised. Between the rails, an on-site coffee shop encourages you to slow down, to observe, to let discoveries come to you rather than force them. An address that works equally well for a specific purchase or for an unplanned afternoon.
« Endroit unique et super accueillant où nous aimons flâner pour trouver de jolies pépites vintages, de la déco originale, et prendre un café sur leur belle terrasse à l'abri de la rue. L'équipe est adorable et les toutous sont stars ! »
