In every silk flower there is an almost forgotten craftsmanship (not to be compared with flowers from Far Eastern countries). Plastics are not used; each flower is built up and not simply plugged together or glued. Even today, recipes that are up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for fabric coloring.

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
