The German family-run company is committed to old virtues when creating its masterpieces. In 1893, Ernst Alexander Wellendorff founded his own jewelry manufactory in Pforzheim. With dedication and passion, he began to create perfect Jewelry and enchanting jewels. Not only the wealthy bourgeoisie, but also European royalty quickly took a liking to Wellendorff's jewelry. The British royal family and the Russian tsar's court were also among his clientele.

Much has changed in the 120 years since the company was founded, but the pursuit of perfection has remained the same over the years. Wellendorff has always followed its "True Values" with passion and enthusiasm. Transparency, creativity and good teamwork are essential prerequisites for the creation of wonderful Jewelry collections.

One of the technical highlights that Wellendorff has developed in its long history is the special folding clasp. It is both a safety device and a piece of jewelry and the clasp was designed so that it can be opened and closed easily with one hand. The company invested three years in the development of the folding clasp, for which it now holds the patent.

Wellendorff's unique rotating rings are known, appreciated and unrivaled around the world. Technical know-how is required to ensure that the rings can be turned so smoothly into one another: the tolerance ranges are only hundredths of a millimeter. The skill of Wellendorff's master goldsmiths is unrivaled. With a Wellendorff Ringe that can be turned, you not only have a piece of jewelry of immeasurable value with you, but also a small accessory that invites you to play and make wishes. After all, some fairy tales say that turning a ring makes wishes come true.

The German jewelry manufacturer is not only known for its master craftsmanship and prestigious family history, but also for the colorful joie de vivre that its extraordinary creations embody. A "cold enamel" specially developed by Wellendorff is responsible for the vibrant shades of color. The special design makes the enamel particularly resistant. In addition, the colors appear in a very special color spectrum that cannot be found in any other piece of jewelry.

The creation of the unmistakable Wellendorff cord goes back to Hanspeter Wellendorff's wife Eva's wish to have a necklace as soft and gentle as silk. Creating something soft from rigid gold seemed impossible, but after several years of effort by her husband, the unique piece of jewelry was successfully produced in 1977.

"To this day, every time I touch the cord, I feel the gold caressing my skin. It's always a magical moment! I cherish this necklace like a treasure and still love wearing it today" - Eva Wellendorff enthuses about her husband's breathtaking invention.

In addition to the fine look and supple feel, the cord is made of solid 18-karat gold. A precise construction turns the robust precious metal into a thin and strong gold wire. The unique cord is flexible and sturdy at the same time.

Only precise craftsmanship can guarantee an optimal wearing experience and prevent annoying hair tangles. The lock on the silky-soft necklaces is designed to be particularly resistant and easy to open and close at the same time.

Wellendorff's "True Values" can be found in every single piece of jewelry. Each of them symbolizes the pursuit of perfection and the passion to create something extraordinary.
