The history of the exquisite Marseille soap Fer a Cheval
The history of the exquisite Marseille soap Fer a Cheval
Ladies and gentlemen!
For over 160 years the Fer a Cheval factory has been producing soap according to the old French technology “Marseillaise”. It was on it that in the 19th century hundreds of small soap makers made their famous product, which became the main asset of the city. Founded in 1856 in the center of Marseille, the Fer a Cheval soap factory today is one of the last keepers of an invaluable tradition.
Only true masters see a real art in soap making, because every bubble, smell hovering under the ceiling, measured working noise and yellow light of lamps have a special meaning. Here the work of a person is a sacred tradition passed down from generation to generation.
Marseilles soap is an exquisite natural product that is good for health and household. Its shape and color change depending on the season, but for us it is an eternal love story.
