Hôtel Baudard de Saint-James, 18th century private mansion at Place Vendôme, Paris

The Hôtel Baudard de Saint-James features cut stone walls, mullioned windows, and architectural decorations that exemplify classical French design principles.

Jacques Gabriel designed this building in 1702 for Louis Dublineau, a Sorbonne physician, before Claude Baudard de Saint-James became its second proprietor.

The mansion, where composer Frédéric Chopin died in 1849, now houses the jewelry firm Chaumet under the ownership of Crédit Foncier de France.

The central position of this private mansion provides direct access to the luxury shops and dining establishments of Place Vendôme.

The reception rooms maintain their original decorations created by François-Joseph Bélanger and painter Jean-Jacques Lagrenée during the 18th century.
