Recycl'ère (CLOSED)

This agreeable little post-industrial boutique offers up a range of elegant accessories and idiosyncratic curios, all centred on an urban theme. Line, the effervescent Canadian owner, fabricates most of the goods herself out of recycled materials: old flags, used tyres, anything. Ask her to show you how to fold up a 400m­­² sheet of canvas, or how she fabricated the shop counter out of tin cans, and she’ll certainly oblige. Alternatively, peruse her range of sturdy, attractive bags (€70) and suitcases (€150). Those on smaller budgets aren’t left out – €10 will stretch to a cute purse made out of an old Vélib air chamber. And even if you have no mind to buy anything, drop by for the eccentric ambience and friendly conversation.
