Ostertag
The celebrated French jeweller Ostertag was located at Paris' prestigious Place Vendôme. During the 1920s and 30s, his jewellery rivalled that of Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels and Boucheron. The firm retailed high quality watches supplied by Audemars Piguet as well as wonderful clocks made by the famous clockmaker George Verger.
