Fahrner jewellery - artistically convincing designs and quality workmanship are firmly associated with this brand name. Particularly in the Art Deco period and in the immediate post-war years, the company was virtually synonymous with high-quality costume jewellery from Germany. Every year, travelling salesmen with large sample cases presented the new products developed in Pforzheim to local jewellers. One such sample case full of unworn Fahrner jewellery pieces has lain untouched in an attic for the last 40 years until it was offered to us. It contained samples of nearly every series from about 1919 until the company's dissolution in 1979, most marked with a model number or the "Original Fahrner" seal. The brooch presented here is from this collection. It is therefore unworn and perfectly preserved. The brooch shows up in the form of two powerfully curved stripes. They are openwork and appear like a lattice of twisted bars. The rest of the geometric shapes are covered with an interesting line-like surface. The brooch is made of silver, which has been lightly gilded. It was executed in the 1950s and speaks the formal language of that era. A wonderful overview of the wealth of designs can be found in the catalogue "Theodor Fahrner. Schmuck zwischen Avantgarde und Tradition," edited by Brigitte Leonhardt and Dieter Zühlsdorff, Stuttgart 2005. Fahrner jewellery is often collected.
