Located at 32 rue Coquillière, in Paris's 1?? arrondissement, Encausse &Krasker was founded in 1910 by Etienne Encausse and AlbertKrasker. Very active until the end of the 1930s, they worked mainly for the great jewelers of Place Vendôme, such as Van Cleef & Arpels, Boucheron and René Boivin, to whom they supplied watch movements and watch cases stamped with the "E&K" hallmark, adding to the prestigious Van Cleef & Arpels signature the mark of a renowned workshop. It's worth noting that in recent years, these subcontracting workshops have benefited from a major revaluation. In the past, master hallmarks were rarely seen, but today, when they are legible, they can considerably enhance the value of a watch or piece of jewelry.
