Schreiber & Hiller is another notable name in the history of German jewelry, originating from the manufacturing center of Pforzheim. They are most known for the designation DRGM 1138525, which was a patent given to Schreiber & Hiller in 1930 for the design an oblong metal link that was specifically engineered to form a secure channel setting for rhinestones.
Utilizing the specialized technology available in Pforzheim, Schreiber & Hiller focused on creating durable and stylish jewelry. Their marks often include the purity of the gold layer, such as 10K, 12K, or 14K, followed by the Doublé or GF (Gold Filled) designation.
They are primarily recognized for their high-quality Art Deco rhinestone jewelry, with their most collected Modernist pieces generally dating from the 1950s through the 1970s. The jewelry is typically marked with the letters S & H or S.H. (sometimes separated by a star or diamond).
S&H also were major manufacturers of various types of chains (like curb, rope, and box chains), often used for necklaces, bracelets, and watch chains. This put them in direct competition with specialists like Friedrich Binder (FBM).
