German born jewelry designer Henry Schreiner opened his own jewelry manufacturing company in 1951, after having worked at the Dior fashion house with Norman Norrell and Pauline Trieger.
Henry’s daughter Terry and her husband Albert Ambros joined the business in 1953. Henry died in 1954, and Terry and Albert continued his work. In the 1950s and 1970s, many stars shone in Schreiner jewelry. Among them – Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Bette Davis, and other celebrities. The value and exclusivity of Schreiner Jewelry is undoubted and, accordingly, increases their collectibility. Firstly, Schreiner craftsmen made high-quality jewelry with unusual designs and in small quantities. Second, handmade. Thirdly, they used stones of special shapes and unusual colors, made by skilled Czechoslovak craftsmen and in the best workshops in Austria. These stones and crystals are unique and no longer produced. And fourthly, a combination of incongruous, and no restrictions in mixing colors and shapes. Noteworthy, Henry Schreiner was the first to use a blackened metal. Thus, he wanted to emphasize the brightness and beauty of the crystals.
In addition, very often Schreiner created jewelry for fashion shows, so they were large and eye-catching.
