Vintage 1960s Signed Boucher Goldtone & Pave Rhinestone Bow Brooch

About the Item

Late 1960s textured goldtone and clear rhinestone brooch with security clasp. Marked "Boucher" with inventory number "0438". Measures: 1.5 inches L x 2.25 inches W. Excellent condition. Marcel Boucher started working for Cartier in France. After he moved to New York City in 1925. In 1930, Boucher started working with Mazer Brothers, when the great depression made making fine jewelry untenable, and remained with them until 1937. In 1937, Boucher started his own company making costume jewelry with the same techniques that he had used to make fine jewelry. In 1945, the company started marking its inventory with inventory numbers, so jewelry can be dated fairly accurately. Due to the high quality of Boucher's work, the company's jewelry is highly sought after. The company closed in the early 1970s.

    Florentine finish goldtone polo mallet with pave faux-black diamond riding helmet brooch with security clasp. Marked crown "Trifari." Measures: 3 1/4 inches long by 1/2 inch. Excellent condition. This is a remake of a design which was first advertised in Mademoiselle magazine in 1937. This brooch was featured in a 1959 advertisement. Trifari is an American jewelry company founded in 1925 which sold costume jewelry to the middle to high end market. In 1930, Alfred Philippe, an immigrant from France, joined the company and became its lead designer. Philippe in his previous position in Paris had collaborated with Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels, which influenced his designs for Trifari. In the 1930s, Trifari's jewelry was frequently used in Broadway productions. Their designs were also popular in Europe, owned by the Countess of Polignac as well as madame Lanvin's daughter and the director of Lanvin. Trifari also designed two sets of faux-pearl jewelry for Mamie Eisenhower. In 1955, Trifari won a landmark lawsuit protecting its copyrighted designs which were being copied by other costume jewelry companies.
