Fireside Antiques

Extremely high-end European antique store, with most pieces starting in the high three figures and quickly jumping into four and five figures. If the furniture feels out of reach, check out Fireside's design and coffee table book and gift section, which offers some luxury and curiosity. On the day I went they were offering a bowl of insects encased in acrylic for $20 a bug. (Featured in the NOLA DECO "Baton Rouge in a Day" blog post.)
