Sitting on the edge of Place Vendome
is this very prestigious jewellery establishment - fondée en 1780
don't you just love it how the French add that
very important snippet of information fondée
and well they might because they were the official jewellers
to none other than Napoleon Boneparte !!
just looking through the windows gave me goose-bumps

Hi Dianne,
Beautiful shop and yes, just to peek in the window would make my heart flutter too.
Happy Thursday

I can surely understand the goose-bumps, Dianne!! Reading this, I had a similar reaction! Awesome! I do love history! Thanks for sharing this!!
The figure over the far canopy looks as if he saw the bill for the jewels! I adore that deep blue!
Bises,
Genie
Just imagine for a moment Dianne - walking though that door to select a special piece of jewellery for Christmas!!!
Some lucky people do!
A wonderful photo essay to feed my longing to be in Paris again - merci!
Loving your new header too!
Joyeux Noël
