About Us
The Story of Vincei Jewelry
Jewelry is a lasting memory of life’s most meaningful moments.
It may be a gift from someone dear, a symbol of love, courage, or a new beginning.
This belief lies at the core of Vincei Jewelry. The brand was founded on the idea that jewelry should hold a deeper meaning beyond aesthetics. It should carry a story and remind us of what truly matters.
At Vincei Jewelry, traditional craftsmanship meets a refined approach to design. Each creation begins with the careful selection of precious metals and gemstones, brought together to form a balanced and enduring whole. The stories of our clients are at the heart of everything we create. We turn them into pieces that feel personal, timeless, and deeply meaningful.
Our jewelry is crafted in 18k gold and platinum. Diamonds and gemstones are sourced in Antwerp, chosen not only for their purity and brilliance, but also for their unique character. Each piece is brought to life in collaboration with a renowned Belgian atelier, where generations of expertise ensure exceptional precision and lasting quality.
The Founder
Vincei Jewelry was founded by Nikol Křivanová. Her connection to jewelry began in early childhood.
Through her mother’s work in the jewelry trade, she was introduced to small goldsmith workshops across the Czech Republic. From an early age, she developed an appreciation for their beauty and quality. She learned to notice detail, understand the value of materials, recognize the nuances between stones, and respect the craftsmanship passed down through generations.
She works at Hodinářství Bechyně, where she focuses on private clients. It was here that she developed a sense of precision, a personal approach, and discretion.
Founding her own brand was a natural step towards creating jewelry.
“I wanted to devote my energy to something lasting. To create jewelry that is not only beautiful, but carries joy, a personal story, and a deeper meaning — pieces that hold true value.”
Vincei Jewelry reflects a deep respect for craftsmanship as well as her personal journey. The name itself refers to two of the most important moments in her life — her son Vincent and her dog Eiva.
Design & Craftsmanship
At Vincei Jewelry, each piece is the result of a carefully considered process where design meets technical precision.
Every design begins with a personal consultation. Together, we explore its purpose, how it is intended to be worn, and the value it is meant to hold over time. In this phase, proportions, stone setting, construction, and the intended investment range are defined with care. Our aim is to create a design that feels visually balanced while remaining fully functional.
The concept is then developed into a detailed 3D model, allowing every parameter to be refined with exceptional precision, from the depth of the stone setting to the thickness of the material. Each element is evaluated not only for its aesthetic quality, but also for comfort in daily wear.
Once approved, the piece moves into production, where it is brought to life in collaboration with a renowned Belgian atelier with a long-standing tradition. The timeline reflects the complexity of the design. Simpler forms may be completed within a few days, while more intricate compositions require weeks of masterful hand craftsmanship.
For us, design and craftsmanship are not merely technical stages. They form a creative process that results in a piece of the highest quality, made to be worn and cherished for generations.
Materials & Gemstones
The quality of every piece begins with the materials it is crafted from and the gemstones it holds. Their harmony defines both appearance and the value it carries over time.
We work exclusively with 18k gold and platinum, valued for their refinement, strength, and durability in daily wear. The tone of gold is always chosen in relation to the design and the character of the stone it holds.
Most gemstones are sourced in Antwerp and selected individually. Rather than relying on certification alone, we focus on how each stone interacts with light, how it reveals itself within the setting, and the unique presence it has. All gemstones are accompanied by HRD certification, while investment pieces include internationally recognized GIA certification (for stones from 0.30 ct).
Diamond
A symbol of permanence. In selecting a diamond, we consider cut, colour, clarity, and carat weight. What matters most, however, is the way it reflects light — in both movement and stillness. We primarily work with VVS and VS clarity diamonds, among the highest quality categories, valued for their exceptional brilliance without visible imperfections.
Yellow Diamond
Defined by its delicate to vivid yellow tone, created by the presence of nitrogen within its structure. It feels natural and elegant. In selecting a yellow diamond, we focus on the intensity and evenness of its colour — the richer the tone, the greater its rarity and value. It is often used as an accent or paired with white diamonds, where its contrast and colour can fully stand out.
Ruby
Defined by depth and intensity. We consider richness of colour, clarity, and the quality of the cut, allowing the stone to fully reveal its natural brilliance. Thanks to its durability, it is well suited for pieces intended for regular wear. It is most often set in yellow or rose gold, where its red tone is beautifully enhanced.
Emerald
A gemstone of unmistakable character. Its natural inclusions are not imperfections, but part of its identity. The balance of colour, depth of tone, and proportions is essential. Due to its more delicate structure, each setting is designed to be not only aesthetic, but also secure and stable over time. It pairs best with white gold or platinum, which enhances its rich green tone.
Sapphire
Most often associated with deep blue, yet found in a range of tones. We are drawn to stones with a clear inner light, whose durability makes them a natural choice for everyday wear.
White gold or platinum enhances their clarity.
Tourmaline
A gemstone known for its remarkable range of colours, from soft pastel tones to deep and vivid hues. Some stones naturally combine multiple colours, giving them a dynamic and ever-changing character. In designing with tourmaline, we work with its natural colour and choose settings that allow it to stand out.
Collections
Each collection has its own character. From simple symbols to iconic diamond pieces defined by clean lines. They are united by a sensitivity to detail, design, and quality materials.
Engagement Ring
The moment a question becomes a promise. An engagement ring is a symbol of love and the future. Its form reflects the personality of the woman who wears it, as well as the story you create together.
