M.S. Rau

“When you end up in the French Quarter, please go to MS Rau. It is a wonderland with exclusively the wildest, glitteriest and most eye-popping antiques. Napoleon’s foot bath, goose egg diamonds, Bavarian player pianos, a Turing machine, sloth bear skeletons, Louis XIV bird boxes… this is literally the antique shop Nic Cage shops at. The staff is incredibly charismatic and very happy to pop open cases, show you their trick cane collection and give you a tour of their secret galleries. Nowhere else like it.”
