When, after the long years of war, food shortages, currency reform and the first reconstruction, the lust for life also returned to German cities and parlors, when the economic miracle made possible a first new prosperity in the centers of industry and commerce, the art of jewellery design also awoke to new life after many years of a dreamless sleep. Rich gold and luminous coloured stones radiated optimism and prosperity. This pair of cufflinks from the years of the German economic miracle is a particularly colourful sight. Created around 1955, the buttons each present a cushion-shaped natural coloured stone in plain 18-karat gold settings. An amethyst, a citrine, a green tourmaline and a red rubellite (a red tourmaline) have been cut into so-called sugarloaf cabochons. The gemstones are connected with elongated white gold clasps and can be combined as desired. The high quality pair, which came to us from the West of Germany, is convincing due to its lively and at the same time tasteful design. It comes with a detailed certificate of the German Gemstone Valuation Society. A beautiful eye-catcher on the shirt!

The first years of the young Federal Republic experienced a previously unseen increase in wealth and quality of life with the economic miracle. After the sorrows of the war years, the displays of the stores shone in new luxury, and not least jewellery and watches also served to visibly show the new joie de vivre to the outside world. The style of the jewellery of these years was often oriented towards the late Art Deco, as it had been developed since the 1920s and continued to determine the designs of the large goldsmith companies, especially in the USA and France: rich furnishings, clear geometries and an exuberant sparkle of high-quality gemstones determined the picture.
