REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS PAST


"MEN WHO VALUE ENGRAVINGS APPRECIATE MY VESTS," SAID THE OWNER OF A SHOP THAT FIT ITS 18TH-CENTURY SETTING

A boutique that until 2024 epitomized a spirit that we recall with nostalgia:

La Galerie d'argent 
42 galerie Montpensier
(It then became an office)







Danou Jacquard, descendent of the founder of Jaquard looms, and creator of a shop that perfectly represented classic France. 

Leave the gardens by their farther end
and stroll toward this royal place:

Place des Victoires

You will remain in an (almost) preserved oasis.
