The triple bud in the buttonhole
A flower with many names: Bachbenedikt, Blutströpferl, Herrgottsbrot, Herzwurz, Kapuziner, Wasserwurz and Kaminfegerchen. But let's leave that. In the buttonhole of the (elegant) gentleman, these three buds with their natural, and of course hand-dyed, color gradient look really good. Elaborately worked: the green silk foliage.
The manufacture of the boutonnière
In every flower there is an almost forgotten craftsmanship (absolutely not to be compared with products from Far Eastern countries). Plastic is not used here; every boutonnière is built up and not simply put together or glued on. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for dyeing the fabric.
