The Conservatoire
The François-Remy Lunéville Embroidery Conservatoire is:
- A family from Lunéville who, every day since 1998, have been passionately championing the Lunéville stitch and sequinned bead embroidery,
- Two techniques practised using the Lunéville crochet, now protected as part of the intangible cultural heritage since 2020 and by a registered trademark for the Lunéville stitch.

At our school, our students discover a genuine passion for the craft, and some set themselves the goal of obtaining the C.A.P. in Embroidery. Subsequently, our students even go on to pursue further studies in embroidery or art history, or gain professional experience in haute couture ateliers.
Other students open their own embroidery workshops after graduating.
A craft that has been passed down through the generations and still has a bright future ahead!
