It’s hard to imagine a San Francisco Symphony or Opera gala without a major presence from Boucheron seen in the audience. As the only city in the United States with an independent Boucheron shop, it’s fair to say that San Francisco loves Boucheron, and Boucheron loves San Francisco.

To show its appreciation for the Opera, and give a select group of women a peak at its beautiful collection, Boucheron co-hosted a party days before the opening at the Russian Hill co-op of one of their best clients, Maria Manetti Farrow.

“Dale Brown, the Manager in San Francisco, is a great supporter of the Opera, and since he knows my love for the Opera, he asked me to co-host the party to celebrate the opening of the Opera season,” Maria tells us.

Maria, who wore a red Valentino dress with a diamond Boucheron necklace and earrings to this year’s Opera, says that she loves Boucheron because it  ”is a great jeweler with very whimsical designs.”

Obviously, jewelry connoisseurs such as Tatiana Sorokko, Barbara Brown, Afsaneh Akhtari, Joy Bianchi, Daru Kawalkowski, Clara Shayevich, neighbor Angelique Griepp and other guests couldn’t agree more.
