BOUCHER 1937-1971
Marcel Boucher was one of costume jewelry's most respected designers. He began by designing fine jewelry in New York City for Cartier, 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 soft iridescent quality that make them a particular favorite.
