Every now and then, on our forays through antique stores, auction houses and flea markets, we find fragments or parts of antique pieces of jewellery that don't seem wearable as they are, but which we can't pass by. We "rescue" these pieces and hand them over to our goldsmith. The goldsmith is always delighted with these little finds, as he can let his imagination run wild and give them a new lease of life as wearable pieces of jewellery. For example, we discovered a pair of large cufflinks here in Berlin that were made from such beautiful materials that we had to buy them. The pair was created around 1875 and is an elegant composition in the form of large shields. Their faces are designed with great attention to detail: The round showpieces made of slightly reddish gold are guilloché and feature shimmering natural pearls in the center. Sculptural foliage in green gold frames the pearls and paired laurel leaves, also in green alloy, form a wreath to visually complete the composition. In our workshop, these showpieces of the former cufflinks, which were once intended to hold large cuffs together, have become a pair of earrings. Large cultured pearls are attached in a movable way and simple bows make them wearable. This is how they are used again to great effect: precious finds from the Wilhelminian era, given a new lease of life.
