Fahrner-Schmuck from Pforzheim occupies a special place in the history of jewellery from Germany. Theodor Fahrner and later his successor Gustav Braendle understood better than almost any other modern jewelry manufacturer how to make artistically convincing designs and high-quality workmanship the hallmarks of their brooches, necklaces, bracelets and earrings during the Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras. But even during the period of reconstruction after 1945, Fahrner jewellery remained a household name. Initially, she mainly created designs that were formally based on her old successes, which is why it is difficult to date them precisely. This necklace is a fine example from the Fahrner manufactory and follows a design from the 1930s, but as it is made of silver with a fineness of 925/000, we date it to the years after the Second World War. Links in the shape of violet blossoms, set side by side with small clasps, form the piece of jewelry in a uniform row. The surface of these links is structured with the typical cord braiding that Fahrner introduced in the "Jewelry for the German Woman" series in 1936. The necklace is also lightly gold-plated. Fahrner jewellery is often collected. Discover all the other pieces of Fahrner jewellery we offer here.The catalog "Theodor Fahrner.
