A lotus flower in the buttonhole
In large parts of Asia the lotus stands for purity, loyalty, creativity and enlightenment. In China, this symbolism is even more widespread: here, a lotus flower also stands for love and harmonious marital bond. To the inclined gentleman we recommend the self-experiment. Here our model in innocent white with pale green pistils.
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; every boutonnière is built up and not just plugged or glued together. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for dyeing the fabric.
