Boutonnière - the beautiful flower on the jacket

Also called: ciliated alpine rose. Closely related to the rhododendron. The flowering time is from May to July (rarely until October) - whereby the remark is imposing: This does not apply to your silk boutonnière, this blooms all year round and adorns the lapel as a boutonniere. A delicate, subtle flower for the buttonhole.

There is an almost forgotten craftsmanship in every flower (cannot be compared in the least with products from Far Eastern countries). Plastic is not used; every flower is built up properly and not simply plugged together or glued on. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for dyeing the fabric.
