The Wall 1 year, 4 months agoBack to the olympic fresco Lefrance Bourgeois! Thank you Bruno Leguet for your comment, because it’s always a pleasure for us to come back to the beautiful projects that we dare to do with Lefranc Bourgeois! This summer, for the Olympic Games, the artist Erell was invited to create the decor for our Charbonnel shop window, in parallel with a giant fresco on the ground in front of our partner Fluctuart, a barge in the Invalides, where all the news takes place during the Olympic Games! Dare to paint!
Please see the video bellow, but also post, pages, on insta and LBeCOM, thank you!

The Wall 1 year, 4 months agoBonjour à tous / Hello to all !
tomorrow is a very special day , that goes beyond frontiers and religions ! the reopening of Notre Dame after the terrible fire 5 years ago. Many efforts were put to re-build the Notre Dame Cathedral, icone of Paris !
We are lucky to get this incredible shop in front of Notre Dame : The Charbonnel shop !
We celebrate also the reopening of Notre Dame with this beautiful windows made with Lefranc Bourgeois Flashe paint by a urban artist (Jerome Rasto) ! and Inside are exhibited some beautiful etching made by Corinne Lepeytre with the Charbonnel black ink.
It gives a lot of visibility to the world, and surely it will contribute to develop the sales of our beautiful brands Lefranc Bourgeois & Charbonnel !

The Wall 1 year, 4 months agoSomething else to celebrate in the Development Team and in our company today: Rachael Reynolds, our Senior Channel Specialist for Data (more generally known as our PIM and The Bank expert), has achieved a Distinction in her Master’s degree in Creative Writing from St. Mary’s University, UK.
This incredible accomplishment was achieved alongside her dedicated work here at Colart. We are thrilled to celebrate Rachael’s success and could not be prouder of her achievement.
Tania Sernivka (Senior Developer and the person behind Syrnik Bakery) made this beautiful and delicious cake to look like Rachael’s novel, which Rachael wrote as part of her degree.

The Wall 1 year, 4 months agoHello,
What a surprise for me to hear this afternoon on France Info (more than 5 million radio listeners per day on average in France), a report on the Charbonnel boutique!
It was produced as part of the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and we hear an interview with Mrs. Blanc Clemence, who presents the work that took place on the boutique with various artists on Notre Dame, as well as the presentation of the works exhibited on the windows of the boutique, and therefore visible from the forecourt of the cathedral!
Again, it\’s a shame that the employees were not informed … and hoping that we can have images of what was done at the boutique … even if the Olympic fresco on Paris … was never presented to us … 🙁
In any case, you can go to FRANCEINFO.FR and you will find the podcast of the interview broadcast at prime time!

Dear Bruno ! Thanks for your support (I take it positively) ! We work hard to give visibility to our brands and especially to the shop ! We valorise the products and brands and are very happy to get all this visibility on major channel and media. Everybody is welcome to come to the shop and visit it ! We have more and more collegues coming from Le Mans when they come to Paris and are happy to welcome them.
PS: regarding media, you never know when it will go on air… I personnaly discovered it after friends calling me 🙂 -
Marie Vincent replied 1 year, 4 months ago
You were quicker than us Bruno 😉 We were waiting to get the recording (which we got yesterday evening and which HR sent to all employees by e-mail). The Charbonnel boutique, decorated with a medieval window display by Jérome Rasto and an exhibition of engravings of ‘Notre Dame sur Zinc’ by Corinne Lepeytre, is in the spotlight! All the media are watching us, and we’ll be sure to let you know about all the opportunities we’re taking! (They are always relayed on our social networks – instagram first and foremost – and on our website Lefrancbourgeois.com in news). So I’m delighted to show you again the Olympic fresco, as you put it so well! Produced with the artist Erell, also realised on our Charbonnel window and visible to the world’s cameras during the Olympics. Thank you for your request! …

Millions of tonnes of clothing, shoes and other textiles end up in landfill every year because very little is sent for recycling .
“The current fashion system uses high volumes of non-renewable resources, including petroleum, extracted to produce clothes that are often used only for a short period of time, after which the materials are largely lost to landfill or incineration. “This system puts pressure on valuable resources such as water, pollutes the environment and degrades ecosystems in addition to creating societal impacts on a global scale.” There are good reasons to seek out alternatives to chucking clothes in the bin – globally the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions, with textile production alone is estimated to release 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere every year. Vast amounts of water are also needed to produce the clothes we wear too and the fashion industry is responsible for 20% of global waste water. At the same time we are buying more clothes than ever – the average consumer now buys 60% more clothing than they did 15 years ago. More than two tonnes of clothing are bought each minute in the UK, more than any other country in Europe. Globally, around 56 million tonnes of clothing are bought each year, and this is expected to rise to 93 million tonnes by 2030 and 160 million tonnes by 2050.
"Reuse. Recycle. Rethink — your clothes deserve a second life, not a landfill."
