New Orleans is a city like no other, where jazz music echoing from street corners seems as commonplace as fresh café au lait and beignets. In the French Quarter, in particular, sojourners find that the captivating atmosphere somehow both soothes their worries and stimulates their senses all at once. It is among these historic avenues that one family has served as proprietors of stunning collectibles for more than a century. Keil’s Antiques has a special story to tell, not only through the breathtaking chandeliers, furniture, and other aged objects it vends to clients but also through its very existence. It is a story of family and enduring excellence.
