My wife, daughter and her friends just left, The store has the best selection of high end specialty soaps, jewelry and beautiful french decor including pillows, clocks, table cloths and much more. The owners of the store are the nicest people, they are awesome. Always so friendly and take the time to really get to know their customers. We will definitely continue shopping here.
This is a place for those of us who missed our trip to Paris due to the pandemic! Such a good fix as we got to shop for souvenirs, cat themed kitchen accessories, high quality French themed table cloth, and etc. that this lovely shop offers. It is so refreshing to be able to visit an unique gift shop in the middle of the mall stores in downtown Walnut Creek.
Wow! This store is awesome. It has a little bit for everyone. The kitchen towels last forever. If you love cats you have several options to choose from tea cups to pillows. The owner is a kind French man and very friendly.
In my life I have stumbled across hidden treasures and there is a treasure in Arc and Karima’s beautiful store. Yes, the merchandise is wonderful, but the owner’s loving spirit are the true treasures. The items we purchase represent different things to each of us but the real treasure is deeper. It is the loving interaction around a dinner table with a good bottle of French wine. It is rooting for the underdog in our favorite inspiring movie. It is the reason why poems and songs evoke a strong feeling. It is the feeling of a warm and loving friendship. It is the love that God has given to us all and some give that love to others freely. Their store represents their love for each other and for France. It is a love worth sharing and they share that love abundantly. It is present in the fine fabrics, table cloths, pillows, scarves, and soaps. The fine French Chateaus, the beautiful French gardens, and the resplendent work of French impressionist artists. There store evokes feelings of poets, artists, the giants of the jazz age: Count Basie; Duke Ellington; Sara Vaugh; and “the little sparrow” Madame Edith Piaf. Whether it is the writings of James Baldwin or the roar of the crowd for the Tour De France or the quiet evenings strolling on cobblestone streets or God’s gifts from nature that are on display at any street market with olives, cheese, wine, and the ever fragrant lavender. Arc and Karima have captured the love of a place that exists in our fondest memories and in real life. When you visit their store, share the love you have in your heart with them and with your love one’s around a relaxing dinner table with a fine French wine. The best part is that you can recapture that memory and take it home with you without traveling to France.May you all be blessed with peace, joy, friendship, good health and bountiful fields of fragrant lavender.God Bless,Jerry and Judy
Just bought some lovely gifts today and tried out the hand creme and wow. High quality and divine smelling goods here. Very impressed. The lavender sachets are heavenly, and make a great gift! Havent tried their soaps, but will the next time I drop in!
I love this store so much! It is the perfect place to get gifts for people. We love getting soaps for a client gifts. It’s something simple and small but goes along way with a new client.I always appreciate that their soaps have really beautiful ingredients as well. It’s really important as a wellness business owner that the things we put on our skin are as nice as the things we put in our bodies.
Great hidden gem shop. If you are into French items and style... this is your place!!!Owner is super friend and can give you insight into French lifestyle! Bought a few things here for the home.
Hands down this is my favorite store for soaps and fun French trinkets. They have a plethora of fragrances. My absolute favorite is their bee soap. So mild you can wash your face with it and it feels so soft and moist afterward. The owners are friendly, helpful and go the extra mile to make your purchase a delight. I purchase their soaps in bulk for client gifts because everyone who receives them wants to know where they can get more! -- Denice Davis
