Leo Wittwer Jewellery

Creating opulent jewellery which looks elegant and understated, the designers at the firm of Leo Wittwer are masters of the art of using precious stones and pearls to achieve precisely this effect. At the same time, this Pforzheim-based enterprise has repeatedly proven itself to be a trendsetter. Lavish, but never overdone: the bright gleam of white gold competes with the sparkle of pavé-set diamonds; the lustre of dusky Tahitian pearls contrasts with the incandescence of diamonds; a large solitaire rests in splendid isolation upon the shimmering, diamond-studded band of a ring. These are a few of the classical elements to be found in Leo Wittwer Collection, but one can also discover many innovations embodied in pieces jewellery lovingly crafted by this traditional manufacturer.

This business has been located in Pforzheim, Germany’s gemstone Mecca, since it’s inception in 1920 by it’s founder Leo Wittwer. Reiner Maier took the reins in the 1980s and began establishing the typical attributes which continue to characterize the company’s collection today: independent designs and the highest standards of quality, both in materials and craftsmanship.

“Wearing our jewellery should be a constant source of pleasure”, Frank Maier explains. Frank, like his father Reiner, plays an active & integral role in leading the management team. Both men share the philosophy that the highest priority must be placed on fulfilling their client’s wishes. “Jewellery shouldn’t be locked away in a safe; it ought to be flexible enough to suit every occasion. It’s form, it’s tactility and it’s top quality craftsmanship should create it’s appeal. And of course, the price ought to be reasonable”.
