Kalinowski Jewellery is the creative partnership of Viktor Kalinowski and Elaine Rieger, makers who share a studio and home.
Their work is best known for its anodised aluminium pieces: inspired by nature and focusing on clean forms brought to life with that unmistakable pop of colour. Anodised aluminium and sterling silver are the materials they choose to work with as they are light and expressive.
Viktor is both sculptor and jeweller, trained with artisans in Poland and further shaped by years of experimentation. Elaine has an art therapy background and has a lifelong love affair with colour. Together they playfully describe themselves - Viktor, the master of shape and Elaine, the master of colour - and their jewellery practice is where these two worlds collide.
They live and work in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges in a purpose-built studio tucked into their garden. It’s a space filled with tools, ideas, and maker energy.
