Louvre -- Le Carrousel du Louvre

Le Carrousel du Louvre

What looks to be a fashionable mall is a corridor to the least-crowded entrance into the Louvre.  You can buy tickets at the Tabac on the lower level and quickly enter - no lines and no waiting!  

To get there take Metro Line 1 and exit at the Palais Royal--Musee du Louvre station, and never leave the covered area going from one underground area to the next.  Just follow the signs to Carrousel du Louvre. 

In the distance you can see the Pyramid

Perigot - design utilitaire

In the Galerie le Carrousel du Louvre

we found this fashion forward store selling household utensils,

all designed by Frederic Perigot on the concept that "simple" is better. 

Every product is based on an aesthetic ideal, both practical and affordable. 

The window design in itself was enough

to make me want to take home mops and dusters by the armful. 

How about un chariot de marche for the daily market shopping?
