Chronology of cameras Balda 

The major difference between the Juwella and Fixfocus is that the former are single-format (6 x 9), while the latter are dual-format. However, by the late 1930s, the two series converge, and some Juwella models become dual-format.

The initial model is called Jubella, a name derived from "Jubilé" (Jubilee), commemorating the company's 25th anniversary. It is a camera with automatic opening, featuring a basic shutter and lens. From 1933, the name changes to Juwella, and various versions emerge. While some maintain the level of refinement of the Jubella, others have brighter lenses and faster shutters.
The early Juwella models have a knob for advancing the film, while later ones have a key. This evolution contrasts with what is often seen in other brands. Similar to the Fixfocus, the edges of the body of some models occasionally have a step.

__________

This is a variant of the Juwella with a specific shutter decoration. This particular specimen features chrome-plated legs supporting the block.
