Vintage Marcel Boucher Mother of Pearl Ear Clips

1940 - 1960
Description

A fantastic pair of vintage clip-on earrings by Marcel Boucher, a French jeweller who set up in New York from the 1920s and, having worked for high-end jewellery houses, went on to establish his own Marcel Boucher and Cie company in 1937 producing fine costume jewellery. The earrings have a typically flowing textured surface, each holding a long sabre-shaped piece of mother of pearl with a lovely pink-green iridescence.

SIZE: One of the earrings is 6cm long, the other 6.3cm.

WEIGHT: 16.5g.

MATERIALS: Gold-tone metal, mother of pearl.

HALLMARKS/STAMPS: Both earrings are stamped © BOUCHER. The clips are marked US PAT 2668341 - a patent which was granted in 1954, so indicating a manufacture date in the late 1950s-1960s.

CONDITION: In very good vintage condition with light surface wear and nice snappy clips.

ERA: Estimated 1950s/60s.

Declaration

Corvidae Antique has dated these Marcel Boucher Ear Clips to the 1960s.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Marcel Boucher jewellery from the mid-twentieth century is recognised for three-dimensional construction, intricate surface texturing, and high manufacturing standards utilizing plated metals and synthetic or organic accents.

These ear clips typically feature textured gold-tone base metal alloy components paired with carved, polished natural mother of pearl or nacre elements.

Authentic pieces are identified by a stamped maker mark, inventory design number, or brand signature located on the reverse metal casting or clip mechanism.

Pair textured gold and mother of pearl drop earrings with minimalist evening wear, structured blazers, or clean monochrome outfits to draw focus to the metalwork.

Wipe metal surfaces and natural nacre with a soft, dry cloth after use, keeping the item free from moisture, perfumes, and chemical cleaners that compromise gold plating.
