Boucher
Boucher jewelry is a brand of costume jewelry founded by Marcel Boucher in New York City in 1937. Marcel Boucher had previously worked for Cartier and Mazer Brothers, two prestigious jewelry brands, before starting his own company. The brand quickly gained a reputation for its high-quality designs and craftsmanship, and it became one of the leading costume jewelry brands of the 1940s and 1950s.
Boucher's designs were known for their intricate metalwork, use of bright and colorful stones, and attention to detail. Some of the most popular designs included animal motifs, floral designs, and glamorous Hollywood-style pieces. Boucher's work was often featured in fashion magazines of the time, and many Hollywood stars were known to wear Boucher jewelry on and off the screen.
The company continued to produce jewelry until 1972 when Marcel Boucher retired and sold the business to Davorn Industries. Today, vintage Boucher jewelry remains highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts, and the brand continues to be recognized for its contribution to the history of costume jewelry.
