ABOUT US
Emil Kraus has been producing high-quality jewelry since 1866. Our family tradition and craftsmanship stand for unique and timeless pieces. We value quality and design to offer our customers exclusive and individual products.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Crafts and tradition
EMIL KRAUS represents exquisite jewelry design at its finest. As an independent, family-owned manufacturer, we combine time-honored tradition with timeless elegance and an uncompromising commitment to quality and aesthetics.
Each of our jewelry pieces bears our quality seal and our internationally registered trademark – the boat. It symbolizes origin, durability, and the unmistakable signature of our company. In our workshop, each piece is crafted with the utmost precision, masterful workmanship, and a deep understanding of material, form, and detail – Made in Germany.
Our company headquarters are located in the picturesque town of Mönsheim in the Northern Black Forest region – a place that embodies tranquility, precision and consistency, and thus symbolically represents our work.
Family behind Emil Kraus
Craftsmanship, passion and teamwork
Since 2014, Katja Binder and Marcus Binder have shaped the company with experience, passion, and entrepreneurial clarity. Both come from long-established jewelry families – their fascination with precious metals, craftsmanship, and design has always been with them and forms the foundation of their entrepreneurial work.
Christian Binder joined the family business in 2018 and has been part of the management team since 2021. He provides crucial impetus, particularly in production management: With his technical expertise and strong commitment to quality, he is responsible for the manufacturing of our jewelry.
Since 2025, Isabel Binder, Christian Binder's wife, has been part of the company. With her flair for branding, aesthetics, and development, she strengthens the identity of EMIL KRAUS.
Our entire production and administration team crafts and cares for each individual piece of jewelry with the utmost precision and great passion. This dedication forms the core of our manufactory and the foundation of our high quality standards.
Together, we are leading EMIL KRAUS into the future with a clear vision.
