What is Boucher jewelry?
1 Answer
Boucher jewelry is jewelry created by the firm founded by French designer Marcel Boucher. In the the 1920s, Boucher moved to New York City from his native country. In 1937, he founded his own jewelry house after having apprenticed with Cartier and worked as a designer for Mazer Bros. The brand quickly became known for its enameled costume jewelry. By the end of the 1940s, Boucher hired (and later married) another designer named Sandra Semensohn. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of vintage Boucher jewelry.
