Meet the maker:chain manufactory walter fischer

The Walter Fischer chain manufacturerr, founded in 1908 by Arthur Fischer, has had its roots firmly anchored in Idar-Oberstein for over a century. This city enjoys international recognition for its jewelry manufacturing and gemstone cutting. With a dedicated team of 48 employees, the company has established itself in an area of ​​over 5000 square meters and manufactures a wide range of chains made of aluminum, brass, silver and gold using more than 1000 chain machines.

The production of chains at Walter Fischer begins with the careful selection of recycled materials, both in the precious metals sector and in brass. The company describes various measures in the area of material cycles and environmental management, and it pursues its own methods for neutralizing wastewater as well as treating gases produced during surface finishing. The use of chain-making machines dates back to the oldest machine from 1908. Over the years, however, it has been modified several times in the company's own workshop to meet current requirements.

Developing new chain patterns and designs is a creative process that takes varying amounts of time depending on the requirements. From the complete redesign of a machine to the quick adjustment of a chain within a few days, the Walter Fischer chain manufactory varies the time span depending on the project requirements. Some new designs emerge organically in production, while others are inspired by customer requests and sometimes developed exclusively for them. The company employs a full-time designer who works on new models every day and develops special clasps for the chains..
