Hi Simon and list members,
You are asking about jewelry business in old Czernowitz, so I am able to
aswer:
1.The most famous jewelry business after WW1 was in the Herrengasse 10,
"Weiss", near the entrance were 2 big vitrines, windows with different
juwelries, on the first floor was the shop and the workers-ateliers and on
the second floor the private apartment. The family had 2 sons, Fredy and
Erich, . From about 1926/7. M. Weiss became royal jewelry, he worked for
the roumanian royal family, also for King Carol( Ms. Lupescu was very proud

with the rings ) .
They moved to Bucarest 1931. They lived there at Calea Victoriei 100. and
emigrated in the 1936/7 to USA, California..I know the family story because
I lived my first 11 years in the next house and Fredy was my first friend,
he visited me and I was often in their apartment..
I knew that they were related to Dr.Rosenfeld. and by fate, some month ago,

Ruth Enis paid me a visit with her cousin from Buenos Aires, named
Rosenfeld.( also from Cz.).I am a curious old woman, so I asked her, if she
is related to the Weiss family, and the miracle, she told me that the son
of Fredy is very famous in USA, his name is Allan Weiss...she gave me the
post adress of Allan, I found him in Google, but I had no time to write...
2.Another big jewelry business was on the Ringplatz, on the Pardini
Promenade, near the corner to Herrengasse:
"Bianovicz", a big shop with 2 big windows.
3.Sidi Gross, the mother of Architect Nathan Gross, both list members,
worked in a jewelry business, she is a goldsmith, I am sure she knows more

about.
Best regard
Hedwig
