Boochier Turns Flower Friendship Bracelets Into Fine Jewelry
The “Flower Puff” collection looks to beaded flower friendship bracelets from childhood, turning the silhouette into nostalgic fine jewelry.
Boochier celebrates the joyous spirit of youth through sophisticated jewelry featuring a puffy flower motif in 18-karat gold with accents of diamonds and colored gemstones, including emeralds and sapphires.
New York—Boochier, a brand known for its nostalgic and fun-filled silhouettes, has released its “Flower Puff” collection.
The collection celebrates the joyous spirit of youth and combines elegance with the whimsy of childhood through a central nostalgic motif of a puffy flower.
Founder and designer Melinda Zelman was inspired by the playful silhouettes of puffy florals that were once sketched in her notebooks and were at the center of beaded friendship bracelets.
The collection started as a single bracelet that was a custom project for a client who wanted to turn a tennis bracelet with Asscher-cut stones that she had in her safe for years into something more her style.
“The brief was that she wanted something fun, playful, joyful, and most importantly, something she could wear everyday,” explained Zelman.
“I knew my client loved flowers, but I didn’t want to make her something overly classic and feminine. So, inspired by childhood play and colorful plastic flower beaded bracelets we once strung together, the ‘Flower Puff’ bracelet came to be!”
