At the Judeo-Alsatian Museum in Bouxwiller
Norbert and Moritz Max Neiger contributed to the glory of their Czech town, Gablonz, by developing the diamond industry there, creating fabulous Art Deco jewellery for the costume jewellery market. The German invasion and annexation of the Sudetenland in 1938 led to the disappearance of most of Bohemia’s Jewish communities. The Neiger family thought they would find refuge in Prague, but they were sent to the Łódź ghetto in 1941 and subsequently murdered. This exhibition pays tribute to their creativity and influence on the costume jewellery industry.
