Since the 1950s and the creations of "La Boutique", these amusing lapel clips have continued to renew themselves. The "Lucky animals" collection continues this tradition, humorously revising models for everyday wear. New animals revisit and complete the jeweler's bestiary: after lions, cats, dogs, frogs and birds, now it's time for hedgehogs, squirrels, turtles and doves!
