About Marcel Boucher

He brought fine jewelry standards to costume pieces, and his firm became known for beautifully modeled figural brooches, especially birds and flowers, finished with vivid enamel, rhinestones and careful metalwork. Many Boucher pieces carry an inventory number alongside the signature, which collectors use to help date them. His wife, Sandra Boucher, also designed and continued the business. Vintage Boucher brooches, earrings and rings are prized for their detail and quality. Each listing gives the era, signature and measurements where known.
