Product Insights
Le 31, Simons' in-house menswear label since the 1960s, offers the Rounded Gemstone Double Brooch at CA$89—private-label pricing that avoids designer markup while delivering jewel-like realism: Swarovski crystals, precision-cut glass rhinestones made in Wattens, Austria rather than mined gems, sit in closed metal bezels with rope-style frames and no exposed prongs, producing a finish that reads as genuine precious stones and radiant color. The two pieces detach to serve separately as a lapel pin and a pocket square anchor, with a 2-inch length that fits standard suit lapels, though the post-and-hook closure suits structured fabrics only and can pinhole silk, satin, or chiffon. The black colorway label is misleading—the actual palette is gold-tone with amber, deep burgundy, opal, and clear stones. Maintaining its sparkle demands discipline: put it on after perfume and lotion, remove it before water or activity, clean sparingly with a soft cloth or pH-neutral detergent at most once or twice a year, and store it away from sunlight, humidity, and heat—a high-maintenance tradeoff for the convincing gemstone aesthetic.
Verified claims
- Pocket anchor layering
- The two brooch pieces can be detached and worn separately as a lapel pin and pocket square anchor.
- Lapel fit
- 2-inch length fits within standard suit lapels without overhang.
- Brand positioning
- Le 31 is Simons’s in-house menswear label; 89 CAD is house-brand pricing, not designer-label markup.
- Colorway
- Black colorway label is not the palette: the piece is gold-tone with amber, deep burgundy, opal and clear stones.
- Bezel setting
- Stones are bezel-set in rope-style frames rather than exposed prongs
- Crystal quality
- Swarovski crystals: precision-cut, scratch-resistant glass rhinestones made in Wattens, Austria — not mined gems.
- Brand heritage
- Le 31 is Simons' in-house menswear line since the 1960s, still family-owned across five generations.
- Cleaning
- Wipe dry with a soft cloth; wet-clean at most once or twice a year in lukewarm pH-neutral water; no harsh cleaners.
- Storage
- Store it in its original box or a soft pouch, away from direct sunlight, humidity, and heat.
- Wear order
- Put it on only after perfume, hairspray, and lotion; remove it before handwashing, swimming, exercise, or sleep.
- Fabric safety
- Silk, satin and chiffon can show pinholes; blazer lapels, collars and seams hold it safely.
- Pinning technique
- Insert the post straight through and ease the clasp shut; a felt backing behind silk prevents stretching.
- Price position
- CA$89 fits Le 31's private-label range, where its own Canadian-made belt sells for CA$69.
- Gemstone realism
- A French five-star review says the brooch is radiant and looks like genuine gemstones.
- Closure security
- The post and hook closure is a standard secure brooch mechanism and is considered reliable for all-day everyday wear.
- Stone colors
- In the Black colorway the brooch has a gold-tone filigree base with a central pale amber/champagne oval stone, two dark red and two opal-toned satellite stones, and clear accent stones.
- Crystal type
- The stones are Swarovski crystal, not generic glass or plastic rhinestones.

Gorgeous broach from the past
With Diane Keaton's style back in my mind after her passing I was looking for a 2 piece broach and here it was. Its totally perfect on my vest. I must admit when I put it on I cried. It took me back to the 70s and the wonderful fashions I wore then. Thanks for the lovely piece.
Chic, superbe sur le revers de mon veston.....
Éclatant, fait vrai, comme de vraies pierres précieuses. Je l'adore ce cadeau que je me suis fait.....
