Les Trois Marches de Catherine B

Catherine B has been collecting vintage Chanel and Hermès pieces for more than two decades. Whether shoppers are searching for a discontinued Birkin bag, the perfect color Kelly bag, or a rare silk scarf, the store's hand-curated collection of more than 1,500 pieces is bound to have it. Her inventory from these two luxury labels is displayed at two boutiques in the Saint-Germain-des-Pres. At her first shop on Rue Guisarde, shoppers peruse mostly mint treasures in the company of exposed beams and an André Renoux original painting.
