Since 1896, the family-owned business Schwarzer has been synonymous with the finest art of jewelry-making and custom-crafted jewelry. Today, Ferdinand Schwarzer is the fifth-generation head of the company, combining masterful craftsmanship with modern design—to create pieces that evoke emotions, tell stories, and last a lifetime.
Whether engagement rings, wedding bands, bracelets, or necklaces—every piece is crafted with dedication and precision. Personal consultation is at the heart of the process: During a one-on-one consultation, your wishes are captured and transformed into a hand-drawn sketch. This is then developed into a digital 3D design with a prototype, giving you a realistic impression of your future one-of-a-kind piece. Only after your final approval does production begin, carried out by experienced goldsmiths—with the utmost precision and attention to detail.
Quality begins with selection: At Schwarzer Juwelen, only the finest materials are used—including diamonds and gemstones with internationally recognized certificates. This guarantees not only the highest quality but also ethical sourcing. There are also virtually no limits when it comes to customization: Engravings, unique shapes, personal touches, or colored gemstones turn your jewelry into a truly one-of-a-kind piece.
Schwarzer Juwelen is more than just a destination for high-quality jewelry—it’s a place where memories are made. Whether classic, modern, or unconventional: Together with you, we’ll create a piece of jewelry that perfectly fits your story.

Info & TicketsFrequently Asked Questions for Jeweler Ferdinand Schwarzer
How does Schwarzer go about creating a custom piece of jewelry?
At our studio, the creation of a custom piece of jewelry involves several coordinated steps: First, we hold a personal consultation to discuss your individual wishes and ideas—this lays the foundation for a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry. Based on this conversation, we then create a hand-drawn sketch that brings the initial shapes and ideas to life. This sketch is subsequently converted into a digital 3D design and, upon request, can be supplemented with a prototype that provides a realistic preview of the finished piece. Once you’ve approved the design, our experienced goldsmiths begin crafting the piece by hand with masterful skill, the utmost precision, and a love for detail. Finally, after a careful final inspection, the ceremonial handover takes place—a unique masterpiece, created to last forever.
What should you keep in mind before designing a custom piece of jewelry?
Many customers already have a rough idea of their dream piece in mind, often bringing photos of jewelry that serve as inspiration for the rest of the design process. An important step is selecting the gemstones, and we can offer you a wide selection. It’s also helpful if you’ve already set a rough budget, as this allows us to better narrow down the selection of gemstones and the design.
Wedding rings with or without gemstones—which is the right choice?
We’d be happy to enhance your wedding rings with diamonds or colored gemstones. Brides, in particular, often prefer a so-called “memoir ring,” which is set with small diamonds all around. A memoir ring also pairs perfectly with an engagement ring, creating a harmonious, radiant ensemble.
Modern or timeless design?
The design possibilities for wedding rings are virtually limitless—ranging from classic and simple to modern and extravagant. But because wedding rings are faithful companions for a lifetime, we recommend opting for timeless elegance. A classic design transcends trends and preserves the special significance of the piece for generations. During a personal consultation, we’d be happy to help you find the style that perfectly matches your story.
What do you consider most important when selecting diamonds and gemstones?
We use only high-quality diamonds and gemstones that come with international certificates attesting to their clarity, cut, and ethical sourcing. Our commitment is to ensure the highest quality and trust.
