No other German city is as closely associated with jewellery making as Pforzheim. The history of the city’s jewellery industry dates back to 1767, when Margrave Karl Friedrich of Baden had a workshop for watches and fine steel goods established in the city’s orphanage. The orphanage was located in the buildings of a former Dominican convent, and jewellery production was soon added to its operations. From these humble beginnings, a widely diversified jewelle ry industry developed over the course of the 19th century, earning Pforzheim the nickname “Goldstadt” (City of Gold), which is still used today. This bangle was crafted around 1960 and is a beautiful example of Pforzheim’s artisanal production. It is made of 14-karat yellow gold and features a simple, unadorned design. It wraps around the wrist like a wide, polished band. A sturdy box clasp and two side safety pins ensure a secure fit. The bangle is not filled with resin and is in very good condition. It came to us from Munich and, as its hallmark reveals, originates from the Louis Fiessler manufactory in Pforzheim, which was founded as early as 1857.
