View Antique NEIGER Bros Czech Hubble Glass, Enamel and Faux Turquoise Bracelet with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. They specialized in exotic pieces inspired by Egypt, India and China. The 1920s saw a peak in interest for Egyptian Revival jewelry and the Neiger brothers' popularity increased with it. They were active from 1905 until the end of the 1930s when, as unfortunate witnesses to history, they were killed at Auschwitz. Beautiful Antique Wide NEIGER Bros Czech Hubble Glass* & Enamel Bracelet. Ornate gilt brass filigree metal set with 3 large blue Hubble Glass stones and turquoise colored beads and light turquoise enamel. Good vintage condition. Not signed but no doubt as to maker. Measures 6 inches long and 1.8 inches wide. Hubble (or Czechoslavakian, Bohemian or Italian) glass was used in jewelry in lieu of turquoise when quality turqoise was difficult to acquire. Considering the history of the piece maker, this makes sense. Antique works such as this would occasionally have Hubble glass. It is fairly rare and desirable.   "The Neiger brothers of Gablonz Czechoslovakia, known as Max and Norbert, created beautiful costume jewelry made primarily of Bohemian glass.  They specialized in exotic pieces inspired by Egypt, India and China.  The 1920s saw a peak in interest for Egyptian Revival jewelry and the Neiger brothers' popularity increased with it.  They were active from 1905 until the end of the 1930s when, as unfortunate witnesses to history, they were killed at Auschwitz.  Their jewelry is very rare and collectible because it is so different and was produced over such a limited period."
