Fahrner jewellery from Pforzheim therefore occupies a special place in the history of Art Nouveau and Art Deco jewellery. For Theodor Fahrner and later his successor Gustav Braendle knew better than almost any other jewelry manufacturer of the modern era how to make artistically convincing designs and quality workmanship the hallmark of their brooches, necklaces, bracelets and earrings. The brooch features a curvaceous and asymmetrical shape, meeting the contemporary taste of the 1950s. Fine texturing creates a dynamic link to the sweep of the design, alongside delicate openwork. Dark sparkling marcasites are cohesively threaded throughout the design. Because of the arches and sweep, a fast-paced dynamic is created. Perfect for the collar of a shirt, the lapel of a blazer or coat! The brooch came to us in a traveling salesman's sample case that had been slumbering untouched in an attic for the last 40+ years. The piece is therefore unworn and perfectly preserved. A wonderful overview of the wealth of designs can be found in the catalog "Theodor Fahrner. Schmuck zwischen Avantgarde und Tradition", edited by Brigitte Leonhardt and Dieter Zühlsdorff, Stuttgart 2005. Discover all the other Fahrner jewelry we offer at this site.
