The yellow rose in the buttonhole

Delicate silk flower in an equally delicate shade of yellow. Particularly beautiful as an alternative to white carnations or rose to tailcoat (white tie) and tuxedo (black tie). The yellow is not bright like sunflower, but rather a yellowish tinted white with a certain, if slightly powdery, radiance. So less Van Gogh, but more Fragonard.

Traditional manufacturing

In every silk blossom there is an almost forgotten craftsmanship (not to be compared with products from Far Eastern countries). Plastic is not used here; Each boutonnière is built up individually and not simply put together or glued on. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for dyeing the fabric. Are machines coming, e.g. for punching or embossing, it is a historical device - almost museum-like.
