Gold as soft as silk

Fine luxury with enchanting light play

Love is the driving force behind everything created in the Wellendorff jewellery manufactory in the golden city of Pforzheim. It is what creates our special moments and it is those special moments that inspire exceptional jewellery creations, such as the Brilliance of the Sun rope generation.

This classic rope is renowned by jewellery connoisseurs the world over as the world’s “softest necklace”. A necklace made of 18-karat gold that nestles delicately against the wearer’s skin and can be recognised with your eyes closed. This jewellery icon was created from love. The love of Hanspeter Wellendorff for his wife Eva who asked him for a truly special necklace.

Using a special, secret goldsmithing technique, the rope, created from 18-karat finely wound gold wire, features delicate bevelled surfaces that reflect light. This creates the archetypal sparkling pattern for which the “Brilliance of the Sun” collection is known. A rope that feels like silk made from gold. Relaxed, light, vibrant and fully reflecting the philosophy of the Wellendorff jewellery manufactory: to create “From Love. The Best”. The Brillant-W, one of the most exclusive trademarks in the world, adorns every piece of jewellery and guarantees the highest quality and extraordinary creativity of every single creation.
