When the Vienna Opera Ball once again becomes the glittering heart of the international ball season on 12 February 2026, Juwelier Wagner will accompany this celebrated occasion as an official partner. The traditional Viennese house is again joining one of Austria’s most radiant symbols of elegance and festive culture — a partnership defined by excellence, style and timeless beauty.
“It is a great honour for us to deepen our partnership with the Vienna Opera Ball and to be part of this unique occasion once again. Few events unite culture, tradition and contemporary radiance in quite the same way — values that are also reflected in our jewellery creations,” emphasise Katharina and Hermann Gmeiner-Wagner.
Exceptional craftsmanship for the 2026 ball season.
Created for those rare moments when beauty and emotion become one, WAGNER’s jewellery reveals its unmistakable aura throughout the 2026 ball season. Necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings from the Masterpiece, Secrets and Rivière Emerald Collections lend their wearer a refined sense of exclusivity while accentuating individual style.
The Masterpiece Collection springs from a devotion to perfectly formed treasures and exceptional design. Each creation is distinguished by elegant lines framed by diamonds — a complete work of art, brilliant, masterful and unforgettable.
The Secrets Collection reveals a captivating mystery of stone-setting artistry: five diamonds are cut and set with such precision that they shine in perfect harmony, appearing as one extraordinarily brilliant stone. In the Rivière Emerald Collection, closely set diamonds form a continuous, luminous ribbon inspired by the shimmering play of light above the Riviera at night.
“Our jewellery embodies an aesthetic that elevates the moment while enduring for generations. These creations accompany life’s precious occasions, preserve memories of lasting beauty and carry within them the magic of the exceptional,” says Felix Gmeiner-Wagner.
WAGNER and the Vienna Opera Ball: an exclusive photoshoot with dancers of the Vienna State Ballet.
In an exclusive photoshoot, soloists of the Vienna State Ballet presented selected WAGNER jewellery, lending the creations a moving sense of lightness and poetry through their expressive grace. The union of masterful craftsmanship and balletic elegance produced images of extraordinary intensity.
“Our vision for the ball season is a perfect symbiosis between our jewellery and the individuality of those who wear it. Our creations enhance personality and natural grace — an elegance brought vividly to life by the distinctive presence of the soloists of the Vienna State Ballet,” says Antonia Gmeiner-Wagner.
