Silk clover with foliage

Elaborately crafted buttonhole with three clover flowers and green foliage (hand-dyed). As far as the symbolism is concerned, you can read a lot there. We'll leave it at that with a quote from the Brothers Grimm: "'Yes, said the old man to his sons, I have to praise you over the skies (in German: 'over the green clover'), you have used your time and learned something righteous."

The buttonhole - three flowers

In every blossom (and here there are three together with realistically designed foliage) there is an almost forgotten craftsmanship (cannot be compared with products from Far Eastern countries). Plastic is not used; each flower is built up properly and not simply pinned together or glued on. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for fabric dyeing.

Boxes from Berlin

The boutonnière boxes are made for us by one of the oldest family businesses in Berlin, founded in 1869 as a hat box manufacturer, in the Neukölln district. High-quality fine cardboard boxes with tradition - in the fifth generation.

The archive

Here, carefully preserved for more than a hundred years, are the historical dies that are still used today. Each boutonniere is made by hand. Each boutonnière is unique and should be protected from moisture and rough hands.

Handcraft from Saxony

There is old craftsmanship in every boutonnière - since 1834. Not to be compared with products from the Far East. No plastic. The flower is carefully constructed and not just put together or glued. Old original recipes serve as the basis for silk dyeing.
