Founded by Frédéric Boucheron in 1858, it's one of the pillars of French jewelry. This brand first specialized in watches. Frédéric Boucheron created the first wristwatch. He also invented the self-winding movement GP 4000, in collaboration with Girard-Perragaux. In 1867, the house won major prizes at the Universal Exhibition in Paris for the Feuillage necklace, commissioned by Marie-Louise McKay, an American heiress.

First installed at the Palais Royal, he was the first jeweler to open a shop at la Place Vendôme in 1893, number 26, in Countess Castiglione's residence. After winning more awards at various world exhibitions and thanks to the growing success of the brand, Boucheron opened, at the beginning of the twentieth century, several shops around the world, including Moscow, St Petersburg, London, or New York. The son, Louis Boucheron took over the family business and helped other jewelers to get started, like Pierre Sterlé who worked in their workshops. In 2000, the company was bought by the Kering Group (Pinault). Today Boucheron has 55 stores around the world. In 2011, Claire Choisne became its artistic director.
