Petit, grand, coloré, naturel, orné de boules multicolores ou monocolores, enguirlandé… le sapin qui triomphe dans le salon d’une majeure partie des foyers du monde entier devient, pour un mois, le meilleur ami de la famille. Surtout des plus petits. De son entrée dans la maison jusqu’au jour J, on le prépare, on le choie, on prend soin de lui. Car il faut qu’il soit vêtu de son plus bel apparat pour accueillir Santa Claus aux Etat-Unis, Santakurôsu au Japon, Babbo Natale en Italie, Pai Natal au Portugal, der Weihnachtsmann en Allemagne, le Père Noël en France…

The Mathurin has 3 terraces and 4 luxuriant balconies, helping, in its way, to reduce CO2 emissions in Paris.
Large, small, natural, decorated with multicoloured or monochrome balls, decked in garlands… the Christmas tree is the focal point of many homes around the world during the month of December and is almost a member of the family. Especially for the little ones. As soon as the tree is brought home, and up until the big day, it is cherished and fussed over. It must be decked out in its finest ornaments to welcome Santa Clause in the US, Santa kurosu in Japan, Babbo Natale in Italy, Pai Natal in Portugal, der Weihnachtsmann in Germany and the Père Noël in France…
