Boutonnière - silk flower in the buttonhole
This boutonnière is about symbolism: the forget-me-not is a symbol of tender memories, farewells and love. At the same time, it is a symbol of the Freemasons and is also worn in Germany to commemorate the dead of the First World War.
The buttonhole - special features
In every flower there is an almost forgotten craftsmanship (not to be compared with products from the Far East). Plastic is not used; each flower is literally built up and not pinned together or glued on. Recipes up to a hundred years old serve as the basis for dyeing the fabric.
