Founded in 1895 in Méru, the historic French capital of mother-of-pearl, Mercier has been supplying leading fashion and ready-to-wear brands for more than a century.
Mercier is one of the few French companies to control the entire process, from shell sourcing and selection to the finished button. This end-to-end expertise gives Mercier full control over quality, consistency and lead times at every stage of production.
A recognized specialist in genuine mother-of-pearl, Mercier makes buttons and fashion accessories in a range of natural materials, including mother-of-pearl, horn, corozo, coconut and raffia. Mercier also offers a collection of polyester buttons.
Traditional mother-of-pearl dyeing is one of Mercier’s core specialties. Done without varnish, the process preserves the depth and natural character of the material while creating a wide range of rich, nuanced colors. Colors can be developed and matched to the fabrics and materials of each collection.
Every piece can be customized, from shape, size and engraving to finish and color. Mercier develops each detail to fit the fabrics, materials and overall look of the collection.
From raw material to finished button, Mercier combines traditional craftsmanship with precision and innovation. This end-to-end control allows Mercier to meet demanding production requirements while providing the flexibility and speed needed by today’s fashion industry. Every stage is controlled to ensure consistent quality and reliable production.
