This style was produced prior to, and following the Second World War. The enamelling of chrome bracelets with geometric and naïve designs was a popular treatment. They were hand-made and were a step up artistically from the mass-produced chrome and Bakelite lines.

Comparable works came from the Perli-Werkstatt in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Kollmar & Jourdan in Pforzheim and A.G. Bunge in München.
