A Short History...
Otto Muller was a manufacturer of high-end costume jewellery based within the Kaufbeuren-Neugablonz industrial zone in Western Germany. After the second world war, this are became a hot bed for the creation of quality fashion jewels. Important designers, such as Christian Dior, looked to the Kaufbeuren jewellery producers to make their pieces. Otto Muller is known to have produced pieces for the house of Dior and was a former partner of perhaps the best known Kaufbeuren maker, Max Muller.
Wear it With...
A rare and beautiful example of high end West German costume jewellery, these earrings a perfect for a collector to wear with a spring/summer look.
The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:
- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.
- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.
- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.
- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.
- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
