'Chevette Rose' References

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Article (newspaper) (6 Jun 1952)

Rose: La Chevette C'est une rose de petite taille, mais piquante, de couleur vive, d'une odeur prenante, une fleur légère, voluptueuse et fraiche, de ces roses que les femmes portent volontiers piquées dans la chevelure et qui y prenaient toute leur importance décorative au temps des longs cheveux et des "chignons".

It's a small rose, but prickly, bright color, a fascinating smell, voluptuous and fresh, these roses that women wear willingly stuck into the hair and who took all their importance decorative in the time of long hair and "buns".
