About Iceland
Iceland is a refreshingly unconventional travel destination. The Icelandic nature is unspoilt, exotic and mystical with its spouting geysers, active volcanoes, tumbling waterfalls, towering mountains, vast lava plains and magical lakes. Iceland’s fjords, glaciers and highland plains present visitors with some of the most beautiful and enchanting places they will ever see, as well as a rare feeling of utter tranquillity.

For travelers on a quest for action, Iceland’s pristine nature offers great potential for outdoor activities such as snowmobiling, horse riding, cave exploring, hiking, swimming, skiing, river rafting, kayaking and mountain safaris on modified four-wheel drives, to name but a few. Iceland supports a surprisingly diverse Nordic flora and fauna and is an ideal place for ornithology enthusiasts, while also offering some of the world’s best whale watching destinations.

About Reykjavik
Reykjavík sometimes feels like a cosmopolitan capital and a tiny seaside village - all wrapped up in one. But Reykjavík has the best of both worlds; the qualities of a modern, forward-looking society complemented by a close connection to Iceland‚s beautiful and unspoilt nature.

Reykjavík’s legendary nightlife is bolstered by plentiful cultural and social happenings in addition to an abundance of first-class restaurants. The size of Reykjavik city centre is also limited enough to allow for easy navigation by foot. Reykjavík has been described as a young and daring city that is characterized by strong contrasts. Conveniently small, clean and safe, it is more or less free from the major problems that haunt many other capitals. Big city events are frequent, the winter lights festival finished recently with thousands of participants and more tourist at this time of the year than we are used to.

Jewelry and Accessories

Jens - Kringlan Reykjavík, tel. 568 6730

Jens

Diverse collection of quality jewellry.

The elegant and trendy Jens store at Kringlan is truly an oasis for tired shoppers. Surrounded by breathtaking designs, one leaves the hustle behind to devote one’s attention to the jewellery. Almost every piece within the store is made by their designers at the workshop in Stigahlíð, so it holds only a handful of imported products.

The designers have developed a style uniquely their own. This special style has been described by many as having its roots in the wilderness and ruggedness of the Icelandic nature. Their workmanship is evident and easily recognisable in their work that ranges from the finest diamond rings to big, abstract works of art. This range, and their use of all the finest materials, provides customers with a diverse collection of quality jewellery.

The 40 years old company is about to rise to a new level as it expands and opens a branch in the main shopping street of Copenhagen – bringing uniquely Icelandic designs to Denmark. The company is now run by main designer Jón Snorri Sigurðsson, who has participated in private as well as coexhibitions in Europe.

Apart from the beautiful and diverse pieces of jewellery, the designs also include items ideal as gifts for special occasions. Among these is a striking line of tableware. The pieces are made of silver and iron, often with Icelandic stones for adornment.

Whether you’re looking for a unique piece of jewellery, whatever shape that might have, or a gift that makes a statement, the beautiful Jens store at Kringlan is the place for you.
