District: 20th arrondissement

Grillz in Paris 20th – Ménilmontant

Ménilmontant climbs the eastern hills of Paris in narrow, winding streets that still carry traces of the village it was before being absorbed into the city in the nineteenth century, and the mix of cultures that settled here over the following hundred years — Armenian, Kabyle, Jewish, more recently Chinese — remains visible in the shopfronts along rue de Ménilmontant and rue des Pyrénées. Parc de Belleville, just to the north, gives one of the best panoramic views in Paris from a hillside that most tourists never climb, while Père Lachaise to the south draws visitors to the graves of Jim Morrison, Édith Piaf and countless others among its cobbled avenues.

The area has a long-standing reputation as an artists' and musicians' quarter, with cheap studio space historically drawing painters, and later a strong rap and hip-hop presence that grew out of the 20th's housing estates and mixed, working-class population. That history has left a genuine local appetite for gold and personal adornment as identity rather than fashion statement, something you notice in the independent jewellers and barbershops dotted along the main streets.

Grillz Paris operates here exactly as elsewhere in the city: no fixed shop, appointments only, with a mould taken either centrally in Paris or during a home visit around Ménilmontant, Gambetta or Père Lachaise. Many bookings from this arrondissement are for gold pieces reflecting the area's long relationship with that material, though plain silver remains a common, accessible starting point for first-time clients.

Questions from Ménilmontant

Can you arrange a home visit near Père Lachaise?

Yes, home visits are available anywhere around Père Lachaise and the surrounding streets of the 20th.

Do you offer anything below the silver price for a first piece?

Silver at 80 € per tooth is our entry point; there is no cheaper option, as every piece is custom cast from your own mould.

How do I know my grillz will fit properly given how steep some streets are here?

Fit depends on the impression taken at your appointment, not on location, so the result is the same whether your mould is taken in Ménilmontant or central Paris.
