ARE YOU READY FOR THE ORIGINAL OF A NEW ERA?

NIESSING SPANNRING® ERA

WHAT WILL YOUR STATEMENT BE TODAY?

Its unusual form allows the Niessing Spannring® Era to be worn in two different ways: Would you like the arches to run across your finger or nestle gently between your fingers? Sense what is right at the moment; the form always follows your emotions – »form follows emotion«.

SWEEPING, FREE AND GRACEFUL

NIESSING SPANNRING® ERA PENDANT

SWEEPING, FREE AND GRACEFUL

The Niessing Spannring® Era pendant is the perfect complement: a delicate, endless band of gold or platinum encircles two precious diamonds. The Niessing Coil or Niessing Chain are simply pulled through it – one of the sparkling diamonds always faces forward.

The glow of passion

The glow of passion

A ring and a floating diamond is all it takes. Ever since the development of the Niessing Spannring®, a diamond can be held by a ring without a setting. What sounds so simple, is in reality very complex – a quick look into our workshops reveals this.

The highest degree of craftsmanship

The highest degree of craftsmanship

Precision and emotion

Precision and emotion

DISCOVER THE MAGICAL KISS OF COLOR!

NIESSING SETARIO

DISCOVER THE MAGICAL KISS OF COLOR!

In this anniversary year, we completely reinterpret the first great Niessing jewelry classic: Setario. Inspired by the Bauhaus theory of colors and forms, the elegant rings in gold or platinum play with shapes, exclusive enamel colors and sparkling diamonds.

RING TO RING TO RING: GET CREATIVE!

NIESSING SETARIO

RING TO RING TO RING: GET CREATIVE!

Since its invention in the mid-1970s, Setario's name, a neologism derived from the words »set« and »variation,« says it all. Setario is synonymous with collectible rings that can be combined over and over again for colorful creations.

DISCOVER MAGICAL VARIATIONS!

NIESSING SETARIO

DISCOVER MAGICAL VARIATIONS!

THE UNIQUE COLOR SPECTRUM OF GOLD

NIESSING COLORS

THE UNIQUE COLOR SPECTRUM OF GOLD

Discovering the unique color spectrum of gold, particularly the subtle nuances beyond the classics of yellow, white and red, has a long tradition at Niessing – and this continues to be honored with renowned design awards to this very day. Niessing made the color wheel of gold come full circle. It has also created unique transitions of color with Iris, Niessing aura® as well as Solaris.

<div>Iconic Niessing color for the 150th anniversary</div>

Iconic Niessing color for the 150th anniversary

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the manufactory, the Niessing designers and goldsmiths undertook a special challenge: inspired by the creative spirit of the Bauhaus philosophy of leaving old paths behind and discovering the new. They were driven by the desire to translate the iconic Niessing Color Grenadine – the color for brand lettering and »Heart and Arrow« – into precious metal.

<div>A precious metal with a long history</div>

A precious metal with a long history

Only the most experienced goldsmiths have mastered the art of blending platinum and gold, as the two precious metals have differing melting points. Niessing has been experimenting with platinum gold for a long time and, after patenting it in 1965, introduced the first Supla tension rings in the mid-1970s: a gold alloy with a portion of platinum and a rich shade between Classic Yellow and Classic Red. It is the perfect gold for creating the finest tension rings.

<div>As if bathed in moonlight</div>

As if bathed in moonlight

Just in time for the big anniversary, the vision of Supla Grenadine has now become reality: a rosé-colored, warmly shimmering gold. Its portion of precious platinum gives it a fascinatingly luminous luster – as if bathed in the cool, clear light of the moon.
