A rare gilt metal, and paste 'en tremblant' flower brooch, Marcel Boucher, 1960s
About the Item
An exquisite and highly unusual 'hibiscus blossom' flower by Marcel Boucher, celebrated designer and maker of costume jewellery, of the highest quality and exceptional design. A very rare design from the 1960s, this brooch is made of gilded metal, clear paste and the stamen is highlighted with ruby pastes, that form an 'en tremblant' at the top.
Marcel Boucher manufactured costume jewellery from 1937 through until 1971, based in New York. He is one of the greatest designers of costume jewellery, if not the greatest. Mixing impeccable style, design and colouring, the pieces are always of the highest quality. Having worked as an apprentice to Cartier in France, his knowledge of fine jewellery nurtured many of the wonderfully conceived designs we now see, from his beginnings in the 1930s, through the 1950s and 60s.
