L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is internationally celebrated for its antiques, brocantes and decorative interiors—but with hundreds of dealers spread across permanent antique villages, individual shops, courtyards and surrounding streets, knowing where to begin can be overwhelming.
This interactive digital map is my personal guide to antiquing in L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, created from many years of professional buying trips to the town.
I’m Polly Finlay, founder of French General Trading and a professional art and antiques buyer and seller with more than 25 years’ experience sourcing throughout France.
I haven’t simply researched these locations online. I have spent years travelling to L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue on dedicated buying missions—often searching for very particular pieces to fulfil individual clients’ requirements.
From French furniture, mirrors and lighting to paintings, textiles, garden antiques and decorative objects, these trips have taught me where to look, how the different antique villages compare and which areas are most useful for particular types of stock.
This map brings that hard-earned knowledge together in one practical, easy-to-use guide.

Created from genuine professional Antique buying experience
Over the years, I have travelled to L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue with specific buying lists and client briefs—not simply to browse.
A trip might involve finding an antique mirror of a particular proportion, sourcing furniture for a room scheme, locating decorative pieces for a client or buying stock for my own antiques business.
That kind of focused sourcing develops a very different understanding of a place. You learn which areas deserve the most time, where particular types of pieces are likely to be found and how to approach a buying day without wandering aimlessly or missing important locations.
This map is designed to help you benefit from that experience—whether you are visiting for one day, planning an entire antiquing weekend or travelling to L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue as a professional buyer.

I recommend checking directly with any location that is central to your plans before making a special journey.
The joy of antiquing is that stock changes constantly. No particular object, category or price can be guaranteed—but that unpredictability is also exactly what makes L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue so exciting.
