Henkel & Grossé was founded in 1907 by Heinrich Henkel and Florentine Grossé. The business, based in Pforzheim, Germany, is known for its jewelry and watches. Some Grossé jewelry was also made in the United States and later in Asia. Known for its fine craftsmanship, the company began producing fashion jewelry around 1930. The company produced jewelry for many different fashion houses, including Schiaparelli and Lanvin. The most notable partnership began in 1955 with Christian Dior, which lasted only 50 years. Many of Henkel & Grossé's Dior pieces from the 1950s and 1970s are dated.
