The Garland Style with its delicate garlands, laurel leaves and wreaths found its way into the displays of major jewellers worldwide from 1900 onwards. The jeweller Koch, who supplied the sophisticated world and numerous aristocratic houses with his creations as a purveyor to the court in Frankfurt a.M. and from the 1880s onwards under Baden-Baden's colonnades, is particularly famous for his fine Garland Style creations. He thus joins names such as Louis Cartier and the Lacloche brothers from Paris.
