Paris Hotel Antiques is a wonderful curiosity shop in San Francisco. We love browsing their treasures rescued from old hotels, cruise ships, restaurants and estates. They always seem to have such unique old curios and collectors pieces. Perfect for the person with discerning taste who seems to have everything!
