  • 6. L'Univers de la Pierre

    The name of the store translates to Universe of Stone, and the showroom is a treasure chest of precious and semiprecious gems mined in Madagascar. Rainbow colors come square, oval, and round cut, to name a few. Faceted and polished, the stones are placed in classic and artistic settings by local craftsmen. An exhibition illustrates the cutting and polishing process.

  • 7. Le Marché aux Coquillages

    If you didn’t find shells on the beach during your Madagascar vacation, you’ll find them here. Shells collected from the Indian Ocean fill the shop, and prices are low. Some shells are rare, such as red Headset (Cypraecassis rufa), the great newt (chariona tritonis), or elephant ear (cassis cornuta). Be careful what you buy, as particular shells may not be exported.
