The business first opened the Summer of 1880.
Back in 1883, Miss Celie Brune, a lively Creole woman, pampered New Orleans' socialites at her Maison de Beauté. The salon was located in a parlor of the Rooming House owned by Mlle. Lizzy Agnes Francais. Lizzy, the eccentric widow of an indigo baron, spent most of her life traveling. It was during these journeys, with Miss. Celie as her nursemaid, that they discovered the great European Spas. Returning to New Orleans, they recreated those opulent surroundings in the home she was given by Lucien Mansion, a free man of color. Offering a luxurious way to relax and refresh one's appearance, she attracted many of the prominent Storyville Madams. The building was bequeathed to Miss Celie in 1890 by Lizzy upon her death. Reborn, Miss Celie's Spa Orléans, again pampers her clientele in the Grand French Quarter Manor.
