Something for absolutely everyone at any budget. Wonderful and unique pieces by talented creators. English speaking helpful service. I don't usually leave reviews but I just opened my bag and found the most beautifully wrapped packaging. I continued shopping as she was wrapping up my souvenirs to bring to friends, which I didn't open the bag until I got home. One was a lovely wedding gift, look at the excellent job she did. Five stars! I can happily give the gift and the bride will know it was handmade in France

What a wonderful place, loath to call it a shop as its really an artisans gallery. Crammed with unusual pieces, not overpriced, you get what you pay for here. Discovered they are on line, great gift ideas and ship internationally

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
