Clear and sapphire coloured paste 'shell' earrings, Marcel Boucher, USA, 1960s.

About the Item

A beautiful classic pair of earrings, in the form of a shell or lily. Made from gilded metal and clear and coloured pastes, they are highly stylish, and wearable, as expected from the designs of Marcel Boucher. 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.
