Friedrich Becker was an internationally renowned goldsmith, a creator of kinetic jewellery and kinetic objects, a designer and a professor at the Dusseldorf Technical College. He made a major contribution to goldsmith art in the second half of the twentieth century.
As early as the 1950s Friedrich Becker developed hidden mountings with interchangeable stones considered a technical marvel at the time (...). This new concept led in the 1960s to kinetics, where Friedrich Becker first introduced the fourth dimension in jewellery design: movement
In 1997 the London Royal College of Art awarded him the title of honorary doctor.
