Goldsmith Vienna: When "Handmade" really means handmade

If you are looking for a goldsmith in Vienna, you will find many. If you are looking for one who actually crafts their own jewelry – that is harder to find.
RINGKING is exactly that: a genuine goldsmith studio in Vienna's 1st district, where every single piece of jewelry is designed, worked on, and finished by hand.
No buying in. No middlemen. No surprises.

Behind RINGKING is Max the goldsmith, a designer and what one in Vienna calls a "character." For over 30 years, he has worked with gold, silver, gemstones, and ideas that other goldsmiths would politely decline. The result: jewelry that stands out. Sometimes polarizing. Always unique.

The studio is deliberately located away from the major shopping streets – an insider tip for people looking for something special, not something interchangeable. Anyone who orders from RINGKING does not get off-the-shelf jewelry. They get a one-of-a-kind piece, tailored to their story, their taste, and – if desired – their life and their love.

About Max

Goldsmith Vienna – Handcrafted Unique Jewelry

The principle behind RINGKING: You bring your ideas – or even just a feeling – and Max turns them into a piece of jewelry you won't find anywhere else. The design process begins with a personal consultation. Not a form.

What moves you, what you love, what occasion you want to celebrate, what story you want to tell – these are the ingredients.

Max listens, asks questions, and thinks along with you.

Your wishes and ideas are transformed into custom-made pieces in gold or silver – with high-quality gemstones, fine details, and a form that expresses exactly what is close to your heart. Whether as a wedding ring for your marriage, an engagement ring for that most beautiful moment, a gift for a beloved woman, or a piece of jewelry that is simply you.
Thanks to the personal design process, the creations at RINGKING are far more than just rings or necklaces. They are dreams taking shape. Creations that touch people. And jewelry that customers will one day pass on to their children.

Custom orders usually take 4-5 weeks. Smaller pieces from the collection are ready in 2-3 weeks. No express service – by design. Quality takes time. It was that way with the old goldsmiths in Vienna, and fortunately, nothing has changed.

Philosophy & Tradition: Goldsmithing that lasts for generations

Goldsmithing has a long tradition in Vienna. Generations of craftspeople have nurtured, refined, and passed down this trade—whether goldsmith, male or female, the craft itself remains the same: the union of skill, patience, and passion.

RINGKING represents a philosophy that clearly stands out from the crowd: jewelry as an expression of personality. As a form of beauty that lasts. As memories worn on the body. Every piece of jewelry created here is more than just an accessory—it is a value that grows with time.

This does not come from nowhere. Max completed a classical training in the goldsmith's trade, learned traditional techniques in Vienna, and has refined his craftsmanship over decades. Thanks to this foundation—and state-of-the-art equipment such as laser technology, lathes, or welding machines—RINGKING creates pieces that no other studio produces in this form.

Sustainability is not just a buzzword here. It is part of the way we work: anyone who has a piece of jewelry made at RINGKING is investing in something lasting. No fast fashion. No throwing away. Only jewelry that outlasts generations—and gains beauty and meaning in the process.

Goldsmith Studio Vienna: Workshop meets showroom

At RINGKING, there is no partition between the "front" and the "back." The workshop is part of the experience. Anyone who enters finds themselves in the middle of the action—like a guest at a Michelin-starred restaurant looking into an open kitchen. Laser, file, soldering iron—everything happens right before your eyes in this unique spot in the heart of Vienna.

This is no coincidence. It is a philosophy.

Because those who see how a piece of jewelry is truly created—how gold and silver take shape under experienced hands, how gemstones are set, how a ring becomes a one-of-a-kind piece with elegance and character—also understand the value behind it. And why a ring handcrafted in Vienna carries a different weight than one produced somewhere else in the world and merely sold here.

The workshop is also a place where art and craft are not opposites. Alongside classic jewelry, extraordinary creations for gastronomy, art, and corporate gifts are crafted here—bronze sculptures, silver objects, design pieces that show what is possible when a goldsmith knows no creative boundaries.

RINGKING also serves as a repair and refinement partner for renowned luxury brands—and is among the first goldsmiths in Europe to be certified for particularly complex work. That sounds like an understatement.

It is an understatement.
