OUR HISTORY

Goldschmied/Goldsmith Primus is a family business that specialises in the production of exclusive and unique jewellery. Master gold and silversmith Josef Primus founded the company in 1974.

In November 1974, the then 24-year-old goldsmith Josef Primus opened his shop at Wienerstrasse 119 (later Wienerstrasse 5) in Wolfsberg. Because of his training as a goldsmith and his advanced training as a diamond appraiser at the German Gemmological Society (German Society for Gemstone Studies) e.V., in Idar-Oberstein (Germany) and his professional experience as a workshop master

in a well-known German goldsmith company, Josef Primus was able to quickly establish a good reputation in his new home town (Wolfsberg).

From the beginning, Josef Primus specialised in the manufacturing of exclusive and unique individual pieces (PRIMUS Highline). He worked in his Wienerstrasse shop for 41 years.

 

In 2014, father Josef Primus and his daughter, Kathrin Rencher-Primus, opened their new location at Sporergasse 13 in Wolfsberg.

Mit neuen Ideen und Produktlinien wird in 2. Generation von Kathrin Rencher-Primus bereits der Grundstein für nachfolgende Generationen gelegt.
