Georges Fouquet exhibited this orchid brooch, designed by his principal designer Charles Desrosiers, at the Salon des Artistes Français of 1898. The piece is based on a fully modelled paphiopedilum lawrenceanum orchid, with delicate pliqué à jour enamel work and a large central baroque pearl. Fouquet formed a close working relationship with Alphonse Mucha who designed the Fouquet shop which opened on the Rue Royale, Paris, in 1921.
