Looking for a Venetian mask

On a recent trip to France, I walked all of ile st Louis in Paris searching for a Venetian mask. I had been told about the mask place, but I was not given specific directions on how to get there.

I went into some 20 stores asking for directions in French and English because I thought they did not understand. Everyone said they have never seen the shop or that they are not from the island... Of course!!

After an hour of walking I gave up and walked to a cafe. Low and behold the mask shop was next to the cafe!!
