Anyone in Paris stumbling into a cheap souvineer shop- Help

Posted by on

Last November while in Paris, I went into a cheap souvenir shop near Rue Clair. I found a porcelain kitchen spoon rest Tourne du Chat Noir. It was like the Chat Noir pioster, but on a spoon rest. My wife loived it and it rested proudly in our kitchen. Today someone who will remain nameless (me) was playing with the dog. His ball was thrown and landed right on the counter, sending spoon rest Tourne du Chat Noir to the floor in pieces. Needless to say, the wife was not laughing.

I thought it would be easy to find on line so I googled it. Plenty of cups Amazon Chat Noir mug No spoon rest.

If someone sees it in a shop, could please send me their information so I can contact them and order one? Peace at home is in the balance.

Merci

This may be a long shot but you can contact a woman known as “Messy Nessy Chic” for recommendations on where in Paris to find it. She has a shop in Paris but nothing in her online storefront for what you are looking for.

You should book a flight for 2 to Paris stat, if you really want to get out of dog house!

Did you use a credit card? Look at your statement to get the name of the store.

If you can remember the name of the store let me know. I'll be in Paris for 4 days the end of this month. I can go look and see if they still stock those.

I believe it was PAR'ICI

Mumbling, PAR'ICI has an online shop and you can search through all their products. They also deliver to the US. I did not see a spoon rest in there, but there were a number of other Chat Noir items. And you can also contact them through their website to ask. https://www.souvenirparis.com/en

Thank you. I checked their on line site and did not see the spoon rest. The stores generally have merchandise that does not appear on line. I wrote them three days ago and received no reply.
