The Story: D’Orlan was the worldwide manufacturer for “Lancel” and “Nina Ricci” fashion jewelry. The D’Orlan and Nina Ricci line was distributed in 30 countries throughout the world.


As a manufacturer D’Orlan tailored the Nina Ricci collection to a more sophisticated clientele, while D’Orlan was more whimsical, designed for a younger consumer. D’Orlan designed every item in house and became renowned for its high standards. Only the finest Austrian crystal stones are used in the product. The D’Orlan line is unique insofar as most manufacturing companies buy components from other companies and simply put them together, while D’Orlan manufactured everything in house with the exception of Japanese glass polished pearls and Austrian crystal stones.


D’Orlan Jewellers Ltd. was founded in Toronto, Canada by Maurice Bradden in 1957. Bradden previously trained under the French jeweller, Marcel Boucher who established the Marcel Boucher & Cie Company, in New York City in 1937. Mr. Bradden moved to Toronto, Canada establishing his own company producing his own brands of jewellery along with producing costume jewellery exclusively for the Boucher Company. Marcel Boucher died in 1966.


In 1979, Marcel Boucher’s company was sold to D’Orlan Industries of Toronto, Canada. The workmanship and details on the jewelry being produced from the Boucher moulds by D’Orlan is of high quality.


In 1984, D’Orlan Jewellers Ltd. formed a partnership with the Nina Ricci enterprises of Paris, France (known throughout the world in the fashion industry for French designs and French luxury goods including perfumes). Together the companies developed a high standard plating process that is highly regarded to include a 22 karat triple-plated finish over a pewter base metal that ensures a consistency of colour. This process has also been incorporated into the Nina Ricci jewelry. D’Orlan and Nina Ricci costume and precious jewelry is sold throughout the world in Nina Ricci stores, in high end department stores and boutiques.
