The quest for the perfect Christmas gift, in le Marais district!

19 December 2018 By Stéphanie Hajjar

One week to go before Christmas and time is accelerating…

To help you in your quest for the best gift, always a little jostled, here is our selection of best addresses in the “MARAIS” district.

 

To start with, the well-known concept store in Haut Marais: “Merci”.

New and trendy: this year  at “Merci” we prepare Christmas with, I quote: “Christmas Bling & Yang“

  

Just for once, Christmas at “Merci” will be unexpected and quirky.

The universe of “Merci” will consist of two opposing but complementary forces.

Christmas will be Bling but also Yang.

On one side, the Bling, a little bad taste, the second degree and sequins, a wink.

On the other, Yang, naturalness, materials, authenticity and ecology.

Several themes, and plenty of gift ideas: for her, for him, lights and ornaments, Christmas tables, High Tech, fashion accessories, candles and scents, beauty and care, bath linen, bed linen, etc …

 

And for those who do not know yet, buying at “Merci” is synonymous with generosity. The founder of the place (created in March 2009) Marie-France Cohen has decided from the outset that a share of profits will be donated to finance education and development projects in southwestern Madagascar.

The concept store has proven to be a total success, thanks to the unique selection that brings together the best of fashion, design, and objects for the home with welcome refreshment and restaurant areas.

CARAVANE

In “Saint Paul”, for absolute fans of “deco”, we recommend the refined decorative objects of “CARAVANE” brand, known for its textiles, available in sofas, carpets, cushions sheers, etc …

To discover “CARAVANE” is to give way to poetry and indulge into an inspirational experience. Their universe is quite unique, and they seem to always have the inspiring object and for the perfect gift!

“A wrinkled bed, a summer morning, a sofa that has seen the family grow, a light filtered by a generous curtain, a beautiful handmade ceramic plate offered at Christmas, a quilt with the sweet scent of childhood, an irreplaceable cushion despite the patina of years.

This Caravan-style story is confidential, without boundaries or shackles, just a desire for poetry. ”

MIEL FACTORY

A stone’s throw away, rue de Sévigné, for honey lovers, one can not avoid succumbing to the temptation of their “MIEL FACTORY” products: candies, honey mustard, royal jelly, candles, gingerbread, and nougats, etc

We will even be tempted by a tasting session led by a real passionate “honey maker” who guides us into discovering an authentic collection of honey of multiple origins, evolving with the seasons according to the harvests and exploring new local varieties.
