About the Item

Rene Boivin brooches were produced by the brand in a broad spectrum of shapes. There were plaques, rounded disks, arch and shield-shaped brooches. This Rene Boivin Retro dress double clip is made of 22 karat yellow gold and perfectly combine a beautifully made scrolling fluid shape with the strong Deco geometrical lines.

Graduated diamonds elevate the look of the piece to the highest level of luxury jewels. Given to the quality of Boivin workmanship, adding these gold dress clips to your attire is a sophisticated way to stand out in any refined and stylish crowd. This vintage brooch comes with the original Rene Boivin box. This vintage clip features approximately 5 carats of oval and round faceted sapphires and 8 carats of Old mine cut diamonds (G-I color, VS1 clarity). Each of these vintage double clip pins measures 1 ¼” x 1” x 3/8” (3.4 x 2.5 x 1 cm). These retro double clip weighs 31.0 grams. Each of these Rene Boivin is stamped with Rene Boivin maker's mark, French hallmark for 18 karat gold. About Rene Boivin Brand: The ability to keep its own style through the centuries is the staple of Rene Boivin jewelry. The company was founded in the late 19th century. Over time Rene Boivin pieces have been adapting to all the new trends and processed it via the original and special way of making jewelry. The most well-known Rene Boivin jewels were produced in 1930-1940, when the company was led by Jeane Boivin, Rene’s widow. Her partners at that time were two extraordinarily talented jewelry designers: Suzanne Belperron and Jeane’s daughter, Germain Boivin. That perfect team made Rene Boivin designs, which are still highly admired in the modern world. Being surrounded by Parisian artistic crowd, Jeane Boivin projected the influence of that circle to her jewelry. The exotic visuals of Picasso and Gauguin could be seen in her Torque, Barbare or Tranche collections. Instead of following a common geometrical trend of the Art Deco movement in the1930s, the House of Boivin created naturalistic themed pieces — such as orchids, umbel clusters and fox gloves. In the 1940s the designs offered more eloquent and larger size pieces featuring important colored stones or diamonds as a center stone. In the 1970s the brand was inherited by Jacques Bernard. Twenty years later it was bought by Asprey Co., and then later by a French jewelry firm. While the epochs and owners were passing, Boivin creativity and flawless craft remained the same until the house was closed at the end of 20th century.

Since we started to make our very first steps into the jewelry world, vintage brooches and pins have always been our favorite pieces. Wearing a brooch is a smart, unique way to express your personality and style. Pin it to your lapel, scarf or a bag, and with just one brooch alone you can create the whole new fashion piece out of any garment or accessory. Some brooches could be worn as pendants, so you get two pieces in one. A brooch is an amazing jewel that is fun, elegant and expressive at the same time. French vintage brooches are even more special to us. Being famous for its extraordinary craftsmanship, each French maker has their own recognizable take on it. Either it’s a prestigious Cartier or Van Cleef & Arpels or non-branded French brooch, we appreciate its sophisticated beauty and exquisite quality. One of our all-time favorites is a dress clip. The design came from 1920s and since then has been appreciated by the jewelry lovers for versatility and original look it provides to any style. Choose and pin down your own fabulous version of a Vintage French brooch.
