Elena Kriegner

Kriegner has won a number of prestigious jewelry awards in North America and made a name for herself by creating an innovative ring design in 2015, which solved the ring size problem for both consumers and retailers.

Many of her jewelry pieces contain large gems. In June 2015, she featured in WAG magazine to discuss her new range, The Voyage Collection. During the interview, she spoke at length about the design of the jewelry, stating it came in a variety of price and cuts, and every item was convertible from a ring into a pendant.

In 2013, Kriegner's work featured at the Forbes jewelry exhibition, for “Out of this World” Jewelry. During the same year, she was also a finalist at the Jewelers Choice Awards 2013.

In 2008, Kriegner finished in third position for the Jeweler In The Net Design Competition. She later attracted attention for the name of one of her 2008 ranges, which was titled Uber, which featured cocktail rings holding enclosed diamond wedding bands, altering the day-to-day look, and providing a new look for divorcees looking to reuse their rings. She eventually set up her business in Chelsea, New York City. Her designs, after moving to the United States, remained quite similar to former works, focusing predominantly on ring design. In 2010, she was featured in the book, 500 Gemstone Jewels, which was published by Lark Books.

Elena Kriegner (born October 19, 1968) is a business owner, specializing in jewelry design. She lived and studied in Austria, where she opened her first jewelry workshop after graduating with a master's degree. She later moved to New York City, where she set up her jewelry business.
