Maison Lemarié Paris Flower Brooch

Maison Lemarié Paris Flower Brooch Hand crafted, visually realistic brown flower with heart shaped leaves and black beaded center. Binded stem with silver pin. About the designer: Lemarié, which began working with feathers in Paris in 1880 and expanded to produce artificial flowers in 1946, is now at the heart of Karl Lagerfeld’s designs and also works with many other fashion houses. Working with feathers and flowers offers an infinite range of potential textures and patterns and requires ingenuity and technical flair. It was Maison Lemarié that Gabrielle Chanel turned to when she first came up with her camellia design in the 1960s. The emblematic flower blooms anew each season in Karl Lagerfeld’s sketches.~ Chanel website   New with tags  Made in France Measurements: 4" X 4" All photographs are the actual item listed for sale.  Photography by Jewelsunderthesea.
