CylinderZlatník Klenotník
Jewels made from natural diamonds, gold and platinum. Designed for one person. Crafted for generations.

Atelier Cylinder
Some jewels are worn. Others are inherited.
We do not create for stock and we never repeat a finished design. Every jewel begins with a specific story, exact proportions and hundreds of decisions that remain invisible to the naked eye.
Master goldsmith and diamond setter
Johann Alexander Fadlalla
Craft is the decision to make no compromises.
„Millimetres separate the ordinary from the exceptional.“
Johann grew up among tools, metals and gemstones. Today he leads the Bratislava atelier as the fourth generation of a family tradition and personally oversees the journey of every jewel.
From the first sketch and the selection of a natural stone to the process, setting and final polish. Beauty is the result. Quality is everything that comes before it.
Selected masterworks
Rare by nature. Singular by design.
Jewels that define our signature: rare stones, architecture of light and absolute discipline of craft.
Diamond guide
A clear guide to diamonds.
Shapes, cut and the 4Cs explained calmly and precisely — before you ever sit down with us.
How a jewel is made
Every jewel begins with a conversation.
Six steps in three acts. The goldsmith leads the way in person — from the first sentence you say to the jewel in your hand.
The idea
01 — 03A hand-drawn jewel sketch on the workbench.
The first sketch — finding the proportions, setting and character of the jewel to come.
Consultation
We meet at the Bratislava atelier and talk about the jewel you would like to create. Come with an idea, with images — or just with the occasion.
Talking to the goldsmith
Johann listens in person: who the jewel is for, for what occasion, and how you will wear it. That tells us more than any catalogue — whether the stone should be protected or allowed to dominate.
Measurement
We size the ring at the atelier. It is not a single number: a wider band sits differently than a slim one, and a finger changes through the day and with warmth. If the jewel is meant to be a surprise, we can work from a ring already worn.
The making
04 — 05The goldsmith’s hands at work in the atelier.
Atelier Cylinder — graver, metal and gold filings.
Design
We find the proportions and select the metal and the stone with precisely the right character. Natural diamonds come with a GIA certificate.
Making
Metal, fire and tools. On a single piece that means dozens to hundreds of hours of focused handwork; demanding settings are done under a microscope.
The legacy
06The finished jewel ready for a personal handover.
The finished jewel — inspected, documented and ready to be presented.
Presentation
Certificate of authenticity, process documentation and a jewel ready for generations.
A wide atelier shot — the bench, the tools and a piece in progress.

Signature approach · Coloured diamonds
Personality, written in the colour of stones.
Yellow, blue, black and white diamonds — and among them a rare purple garnet. We compose the colours and the placement of the stones together with you, until the combination is unmistakably yours. No two are ever alike.

What matters.
05 questions · before your consultation
Yes. We dedicate the atelier's capacity to commissions. Every published piece already has an owner and its design will not be repeated.
