Stories
Oriental Pearls – Treasures of the Sea
Several jewellery pieces with oriental pearls are simply unforgettable, especially because they were created with the exceptional craftsmanship of our master jewellers.
Erwin Wurm – The Story of the Pickle
The Gurkerl – or pickled cucumber – is a recurring motif in Erwin Wurm’s work. To him, the pickle embodies individuality because no two pickles are alike. Just like human beings.
Valentine’s Day and Its Symbols
The Roman Saint Valentine is said to have secretly conducted marriages for soldiers who were forbidden to wed. Thanks to poets such as Geoffrey Chaucer and William Shakespeare, his legend became a part of modern folklore. And by the 20th century, a veritable annual celebration had taken hold around the newly declared day of love.

Jewels can be seen as an enhancement or a protection... personally I like to look at them as an adventure.

Every visit to the Köcherts is an experience! I love to dive into the stimulating world of wonderful stones and treasures, to learn more about the colours, special features and stories of the pieces of jewellery!
The right jewellery says more than a thousand words. Köchert also combines deep tradition with the most modern craft and design. You can find yourself in the splendor of the fantastic pieces.
Austrian history, like that of my family, is closely connected to the Köchert company. And you notice that immediately when you enter the historic shop on the Neuer Markt. The jewellery is simply unique and a wonderful combination of lived tradition and current design. Bravo!
I value the exquisite jewellery from Köchert as the very finest handicraft. The taste and style of the house, as well as the pleasant, personal relationship with the family are unique.
A delicate splash of colour brings effortless sophistication to any ensemble. And few things do so with greater ease than a jewel from Köchert. Particularly a ring you find yourself admiring.

Every coiffure deserves a finishing touch. And should your collection still be lacking a constellation of diamond stars, we would be delighted to create them for you.
Twenty-seven, perhaps. Or more - depending entirely on how much your mane can carry. A little sparkle, after all, has never been known to be excessive.

Star or flower? Much has been speculated about whether the edelweiss blossom may have inspired Empress Elisabeth’s celebrated star jewels.
Whilst the resemblance is certainly intriguing and cannot be entirely dismissed, historical records preserved within the Imperial Treasury refer to the pieces quite unequivocally as stars.
Perhaps it is precisely this ambiguity that continues to lend them their enduring fascination - poised somewhere between nature, myth, and imperial splendour.

Floral motifs have formed part of the very essence of the design language of our house since its founding more than 200 years ago.
Ever since the Biedermeier period, nature has remained an endless source of inspiration for our designs - in colour, in form, and in delicate detail. Infinitely varied yet always harmonious, floral beauty continues to captivate the eye and inspire the hand.
A timeless dialogue between nature and craftsmanship.

When searching for the perfect engraving, inspiration is everything.
Why not look to history? Antique seals, heirloom inscriptions, poetic dedications and time-honoured monograms all carry stories that have endured through generations.
A thoughtfully chosen engraving transforms a beautiful gift into something deeply personal - a keepsake destined to become part of a family’s own heritage.

Whether for rings or historic signet seals, the engraving of a coat of arms demands true mastery and years of experience.
With the steadiest of hands, the finest details are meticulously carved into stone - most often in reverse, precisely according to the client’s wishes. Frequently created as an alliance crest, symbolising the union of two families, each piece carries both heritage and meaning.
A living tradition, proudly preserved within our house for generations.

A project begins not simply with a design, but with trust, appreciation and close collaboration. Creating bespoke pieces is about far more than transforming gemstones into jewellery. It is about listening carefully, understanding personal wishes and giving form to something deeply individual.
For this ring, a client entrusted us with extraordinary diamonds: a 15 ct drop cut diamond accompanied by two triangles. Additional brilliant cut diamonds set into the band complete and complement the design, creating a harmonious balance.
Our aim has always been to realise each client’s vision as faithfully as possible, while combining it with craftsmanship, experience and attention to detail.
Every bespoke creation ultimately becomes what it is meant to be: a one-of-a-kind piece with a story of its own.

Long dismissed as old-fashioned and left forgotten in velvet-lined drawers, she is finally making her return.
Now is the perfect moment to bring grandmother’s treasured jewel back into the spotlight and give it the admiration it deserves once more. Whether pinned to a lapel, woven into silk, or styled with modern tailoring - imagination knows no bounds.
And you will see… the brooch wears beautifully again.

What an outdated misconception that archival work was lonely and monotonous. Quite the opposite. Conversations with remarkable people about the treasures they have so carefully preserved are deeply enriching - and inspire a profound sense of awe for the histories these objects have witnessed and the personal stories they continue to bear.
The pieces shown here escaped confiscation under the Nazi regime by a stroke of extraordinary fortune. Following a generous donation by the descendants of Clarisse Rothschild, they have now found a new home at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

It is always fascinating to trace the footsteps of history. More often than not, it is a combination of fortunate coincidences and shared dedication that brings the past back into focus. At times, our research journeys lead us far beyond Vienna - as they did here to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, home to a breathtaking collection, including works with Viennese provenance. More to follow.

Jewellery is meant to be worn - with pleasure, with joy, and every single day. Not reserved solely for grand entrances or glamorous occasions. We believe it is the little indulgences that lend everyday life its colour.
