Sterling Silver Charms in Paris?
 
I have a silver bracelet that I like to add charms to from the places I visit. I would prefer Sterling Silver over costume jewelry. Does anyone know any stores in Paris that would carry these? A charm of the Eiffel Tower or Notre Dame would be nice. Thanks!

Try Hermes

You can actually find stuff like this in the vendor stalls everywhere... well near Notre Dame......<BR>It is stirling silver. My daughter found several in various areas of Paris.

I appreciate the info. I wasn't sure that vendor stalls would have them in Sterling. Thanks!<BR>

Susan in my insanity I suggested Hermes, they are on rue Fabourg St. Honore but you can look them up on www.pagesjaunes.fr and click on the little English icon. They are going to be upscale and not inexpensive but they are very classic. I do not know if they would make an eiffel tower charm or Notre Dame charm but I think perhaps you could call them before you go. They might also be able to suggest another place. I am sorry that I cannot be of more help. Hermes is expensive but they do have things there that are very very classic and beautiful. Anyway I hope you have a wonderful trip and a safe one. Post when you get back and let us know if you found what you were looking for.
