Robbe & Berking
Robbe & Berking is Germany's biggest manufacturer of amazing silver cutlery and internationally renowned luxury brand from Flensburg.
Nicolaus Christoph Robbe, great great grandfather of the current owner, founded the Flensburg silversmiths. He worked alone – supported only by his wife Luise – in his small workshop to produce silver cutlery and table accessories, commissioned by and based on the designs of jewellers from the Flensburg region. In 1897, a very talented assistant was appointed: Robert Berking came from the respected Braunschweig Bürgerhaus. He had learned the silversmith trade in his home town and completed his master craftsman certificate. He fell in love with Henriette Robbe, the daughter of his master, married her and took a 50 percent holding in the small company. The company's first strong period of growth began with Robert Berking. It took many years of hard work and endeavor for the company to turn into Germany's biggest manufacturer of luxury silver cutlery.
In 2008, Oliver Berking founded Robbe & Berking Classics, which builds classic yachts made solely from wood and with a timeless elegance; the company has a subsidiary, Baum & König, which is a yacht broker; and has been publishing the international lifestyle magazine GOOSE since 2011. In 2009, Robbe & Berking opened a precious metal trading company and, with it, another field of business, which has since been experiencing strong growth. Besides the collection of silver pieces, bars and coins made from gold and silver are now sold and purchased in 10 shops in Vienna, Flensburg, Kiel, Hamburg, Bremen, Hanover, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt and Munich.
Well over half of the 200 largest yachts on the planet are fitted out with Robbe & Berking silver. The manufacturer's restaurant clients are distinguished by hundreds of Michelin stars. The company considers those who have chosen a product from the factory to not be customers, but rather friends of Robbe & Berking. Friends who, in part, have remained true to the brand for generations, and whose expectations of the very best have been fulfilled by the products created by the Flensburg silver factory for 5 generations. And they are friends in spirit; as they all share a calmness. It is not lifestyle, transient fashions or a desire to consume that drives them forward; instead it is the demand for timeless elegance. But what use is timeless elegance if the work does not survive the times? Thus, amongst connoisseurs across the world, the name Robbe & Berking stands as a quality seal for uncompromising and unrivalled quality combined with German workmanship.
At Robbe & Berking, excellent service is no by-product; instead it is a matter of course - and it has been since 1874. Robbe & Berking continues to grow and now stands as one of Germany's most successful luxury brands.
