“The offer of the company Ferdinand Hubert Schmitz in Paris [Paris World Fair 1900] is most extensively documented in the contemporary reporting. The stand attracted attention and was generally appreciated and illustrated. Dr. Max Osborn praises the design of the stand with furniture by the Cologne-based company Heinrich Pallenberg: “The exhibition by Ferdinand Hubert Schmitz in Cöln is characterized by the taste with which the precious products of this company are piled up. The niche is an ideal little jewelery shop. Its wooden architecture makes the products, the bowls and bowls and vases, the beautiful works of gold and enamel, stand out in a particularly impressive way. The mirror, whose wooden framing sends individual members across the glass, which then condense to a console board at table height, the wall decoration with the magnificent fountain, the table and the well-built silver cabinet, all appear like parts of a living room and cause the exhibited Objects quite differently come to the advantage than in such aspects usually disregarding, popular store arrangements. “” (>> … An idelaer small jewelery shop <& lt; The Cologne company Orivit at the World Exhibition Paris 1900th of Helene Blum-Spicker </ strong> Special edition from the Wallraf-Richartz Yearbook, volume LXI, Cologne 2000, pp. 218-219.) </ P>
