About Boucheron

Founded in 1858, Frédéric Boucheron experimented with many styles and materials, creating some of the most imaginative and spectacular jewels of the 19th century. Praised for their innovative and flawless craftsmanship, Boucheron won many awards and catered to society’s elite. In 1893, Boucheron was the first jeweler to move to the prestigious Place Vendome, occupying a sunny corner where they still reside today. Their exquisite, sophisticated designs continued to draw heads of state and VIPs from near and far throughout the 20th century.

About The 1950s

The 1950s represent a decade of post-war prosperity. Fashion, femininity and classic glamour returned to style. Bold, oversized jewelry designs were more open and textural than the chunkier styles that preceded them in the 1940s. Diamonds set in platinum were back en vogue as the inspirational geometry of Art Deco gave way to a curves and swirls. Brooches and earrings featuring spray designs, mixing round and baguette diamonds, became a distinctive hallmark of the period.
