TOOLS OF THE KRAMER COMPANY
In 1917, the Kramer factory began its medals and goldsmith activity in Neuchâtel. It produced medals, badges, beret insignia, but also silverware, such as cutlery and channes. In 1999, the company merged with Huguenin Médailleurs SA in Le Locle.
In 2002, the Museum of Art and History acquired just under 900 punches and dies from the Paul Kramer factory.
