Frozen in time, an exquisite Parisian apartment, cloaked in dust and brimming with turn-of-the-century wonders, has emerged as a captivating journey into the past. Locked away for seven decades, this untouched abode came to light three years ago following the passing of its 91-year-old owner, Mrs. De Florian.
Having fled to the south of France before the outbreak of World War II, Mrs. De Florian never returned to her residence in the French capital’s 9th arrondissement. Over the subsequent 70 years, it appeared that not a soul had ventured inside. Nestled between the notorious Pigalle red light district and the Opera, this hidden gem near a church held secrets waiting to be unveiled.
