Heinrich Levinger was a notable German jeweller and metalworker active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He founded his company in Pforzheim, a city renowned for its jewelry and watch-making industry. After his death in 1899, the company underwent several name changes: in 1903, it became Levinger & Bissinger, and in 1909, it reverted to Heinrich Levinger.
Levinger's work is characterized by the Art Nouveau style, known as Jugendstil in Germany. His pieces often feature natural motifs, intricate enamel work, and the use of materials such as gilded silver, pearls, and gemstones.
