Fahrner jewellery from Pforzheim occupies a special place in the history of Art Nouveau and Art Deco. For Theodor Fahrner and later his successor Gustav Braendle knew better than almost any other modern jewellery manufacturer how to make artistically convincing designs and quality workmanship the hallmark of their brooches, necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Salesmen with large sample cases presented the new products developed in Pforzheim to local jewellers. One such sample case full of unworn Fahrner jewellery had lain untouched in an attic for the last 40 years or more until we were able to purchase it. It contained samples of almost all series from about 1919 until the dissolution of the company in 1979, most of them with a model number or the "Original Fahrner" seal. This necklace is therefore unworn and in best condition. The centerpiece of the necklace shows seven openwork links. The links are reminiscent of small hearts and look playful and elegant at the same time. Pod-shaped links lead over to the spring clasp. The jewellery shows the typical design language of the 1950s with gentle sweeps and elegant detail shapes and is set all over with sparkling marcasites. A wonderful overview of the wealth of designs is offered in the catalogue "Theodor Fahrner. Jewellery between avant-garde and tradition", edited by Brigitte Leonhardt and Dieter Zühlsdorff, Stuttgart 2005. Discover all the other pieces of Fahrner jewelry we offer at this site.
