About Krementz:
Krementz & Co. was founded by George Krementz, and his cousin Julius Lebcheucher, in Newark, New Jersey, in 1866. The company that began designing men’s jewelry later included jewelry for women. Within the company’s more than 150-year history, they produced both fine jewelry and high-end costume jewelry. Regardless of which category of jewelry created, the Krementz name has always been associated with high quality. Int he 1930s, the company decided to pivot from men’s buttons and cufflinks and created lines of jewelry for women. These included both fine and high-end costume jewelry, such as necklaces, brooches, earrings, and bracelets. There were also other interesting pieces created such as lorgnettes, used for elegant evenings to view the opera or ballet, and lingerie clips. In the 1930s, a women’s line of fine jewelry was crafted using white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold. A costume jewelry line was also crafted using gold overlay. Between 1866 until 1950 jewelry made by Krementz & Co. contained a hallmark with the word KREMENTZ written in capital block letters. After the 1950s, the company name appears written in script. This continued even after being purchased by the Calibri Group, in 1997. less
