A short distance from Place du Jeu de Balle Antiques market in Brussels is Rue Haute which has numerous antique shops, some of which are like a tardis inside (i.e. they look small on the outside but are huge on the inside!)
As mentioned previously this area of Brussels is pretty shabby but the antique shops are like diamonds in the rough with some amazing (and amusing!) objects and artefacts.
The photos were taken in various shops, which had some amazing pieces but out of our price bracket, plus the bigger items would have been awkward, to say the least, to get home on the train.
