Heimerle + Meule · Pforzheim
Gold from the Golden City.
It began with the dust of the workshops.
Jewellery has been made in Pforzheim since the 18th century. Wherever there is filing, sawing and polishing, precious metal falls to the floor as fine dust and ends up in the sweepings.
The entrepreneur Julius Dittler founds a sweepings works, a “Kehretsanstalt”, to recover precious metal from production waste.
1845
This is the year the story of Heimerle + Meule begins. To this day, the date appears in the mark of the house.
Inside the works
From scrap to bar.
The scrap
Jewellery, coins, cutlery, dental gold and industrial residues: from these, the house recovers precious metal today.
The pour
Gold melts at 1,064 degrees Celsius, silver at 962 degrees. The melter pours the molten metal from the crucible into the mould.
The bar
At the end comes the finished bar, bearing its weight and fineness. According to the company, the fine metals used are produced in its own refinery.
A house that carries on.
1945
In ruins
On 23 February an air raid destroys Pforzheim’s town centre. The company’s building is also lost in the war. Afterwards, it makes a fresh start in the premises of a jewellery and watch factory.
1977
The Brötzinger Tal
The company moves out of the town centre to the Brötzinger Tal, a valley that had been filled in after the war, partly with the rubble of the old town. Its headquarters have been there ever since.

Bars for investors

2014
Good Delivery
On 3 June the London Bullion Market Association admits the company to its Good Delivery List, the register of recognised gold refiners. It has remained on the list since that day.
Bar in a card
Gold you can give as a gift.
A small bar of fine gold, firmly set into a card the size of a credit card.
A gift that is not used up: for a birth, a wedding or simply as a thank-you.
On the bar

From dust came a name.
Made to last.
The idea of the sweepings works lives on, too: recovering and refining precious metal has been the heart of the house since its founding.

1g Gold Bar Heimerle + Meule Valentine's Day FineCard – genuine investment gold with a personal touch
- Investment goal: With gold bars, you protect your wealth exceptionally effectively against the creeping devaluation of money.
- Value preservation: A gold bar is a reliable store of value that preserves the real substance of your wealth and strengthens it over the years.
- Protection: Especially amid rising inflation, economic setbacks, and mounting government debt, you can safeguard your capital with gold.
- Crisis protection: Small bars can serve excellently as a means of payment and exchange in turbulent times.
The 1g gold bar from Heimerle + Meule combines two things that rarely come together so elegantly: a lovingly designed Valentine's Day FineCard and one gram of pure, minted fine gold. The romantic design provides the personal touch. The actual substance – and the reason for the purchase – is the contained fine gold, whose value is directly tied to the gold price. Whoever chooses this is not acquiring a fleeting gift, but a physical asset that can be held onto.
The FineCard, in a handy credit-card format, features dark red, fresh roses, two glittering hearts, and a package wrapped in white paper with a red bow – arranged on light wood in a charming vintage look. On the right, in elegant red script, reads the greeting "Happy Valentine's Day!". The minted bar is securely embedded in the card. Its obverse displays the lettering HEIMERLE + MEULE, the designation FINE GOLD 999.9, the traditional company emblem with the year 1845, as well as the weight indication 1g along with the melter/assayer hallmark.
Manufacturer with history: Heimerle + Meule
The manufacturer is Heimerle + Meule from Pforzheim, Germany's oldest gold and silver refinery, with roots dating back to 1845. The minted bar consists of 999.9/1,000 fine gold and bears the LBMA (London Bullion Market Association) quality seal in Good Delivery standard – a certificate of authenticity is included with every piece. A 1 gram gold bar from this house thus stands for the highest purity, clean minting, and verified origin "Made in Germany". In addition, Heimerle + Meule grants a buy-back guarantee on its own bars, which further facilitates future tradability.
Despite the personal occasion, what you are acquiring here is full-fledged investment gold. Anyone who gives a genuine gold investment for Valentine's Day is not handing their loved one a fleeting greeting, but a lasting piece of substance. As an inflation hedge, gold preserves purchasing power over time, while paper money continuously loses value through the central banks' money printing. Small denominations in particular are well suited for building wealth in tangible assets step by step and without a large capital outlay.
Why gold has convinced for millennia
Gold is the oldest currency in the world and has served as a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It has an inherent, intrinsic value, has never had a value of zero throughout its history, and is recognized worldwide as a means of payment and exchange. Its supply is scarce and limited, which supports long-term value stability – it is not without reason that central banks themselves hold enormous gold reserves. Physical gold can also be converted back into cash at any time with high liquidity and is excellently suited for passing on wealth across generations. Another advantage: profits from the sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.
Compared to larger bars, the 1 gram unit scores with its fine divisibility: one can purchase small amounts specifically or later sell them individually, without having to move a large value at once. This is exactly what makes this FineCard the ideal entry point into physical gold investment – tangible, value-stable, and with a touch of warmth.
