Discovery of the Lorraine furniture of a family confectionery and emblematic of Nancy
Discover this family candy shop opened in 1933, whose storefronts and windows are a testimony to the confectioner’s art at the beginning of the 20th century.
This family-owned and iconic Nancy candy shop opened in 1933. Its Lorraine furniture is listed as historical monuments.
It is here that was imagined a small metal box red and gold that smells good the bergamot, and that the director Jean-Pierre Jeunet will appear in The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain, in 2001.
The Lefèvre brothers' pastry saga began long before in Nancy: in 1840.
Antoine Lefèvre then founded, rue de la Faïencerie in Nancy, a gingerbread and biscuits factory in Reims. A confectioner and biscuit maker, he formed his younger brother, Romain, who founded a cookie factory in Nantes in 1846: the small LU.
Always family-run, the confectionery shop in the Duchy of Lorraine has survived intact.
The presentation displays in nickel-plated steel and copper were made by the Hass establishments in Nancy from 1933 to 1939.
Nancy’s sweet treats are presented in a Lorraine decorative ensemble designed by Georges and Georgette Lefèvre and created by the cabinetmaker Bezard. The furniture has been listed as historic monuments since February 2022. A beautiful earthenware parrot has kept a watchful eye on the place for 90 years.
Tiles from Lunéville - Saint Clément and Emaux de Longwy have been in the spotlight since the beginning.
Luminaires made by the Muller Frères de Lunéville establishments are part of the project.
During your visit, you will be able to learn more about this family of confectioners and biscuit makers, who have been making macaroons and bergamots in Nancy since 1840.
