BOUCHER  1937-1971

Marcel Boucher was one of costume jewelry's most respected designers. He began by designing fine jewelry for Cartier in New York City then moved into creating his own line in about 1937. Making jewelry with the marks "MB", "Boucher" and "Marboux", his designs were fluid and detailed and his enamels have a colorful translucent quality that make them a particular favorite.
