Ed Wiener (1918-1991) was a New York modernist jewellery designer, who started his career in Provincetown and Greenwich Village in the 1940s, working mainly in silver. By the 1950s he began experimenting with the use of gold and precious jewels. His studios were at 53rd Street, and on Fifth Avenue, where he continued to work until his death.
