To showcase the most refined creations of its “artisans d’art”, the Fort Royal group has left the Bastille neighbourhood to treat itself to new premises in the chic 8th arrondissement. With floor space of 130 m2 on two floors, this elegant showroom displays offerings by historic legends in French heritage : orange-tree boxes from Les Jardins du Roi Soleil, cabinetmaker Craman Lagarde, the gunsmith Darne, master glass-maker Atelier Simon Marq, and a new arrival of unequalled virtuosity, metalworker Betemps, specializing in wrought iron. Showroom Fort Royal, 137 boulevard Haussmann, Paris 8 (01 83 64 89 12).
