For Karen Rosengart, founder of K. Rosengart, the diamond business is more than a profession—it’s in her blood.
“My father spent his life as a diamond setter, and I was always excited to see the beautiful pieces he made,” says Karen. “I attended the Art Institute of Chicago, and while in school, I was lucky enough to study in London, learning how to design jewelry.”
After graduation, Karen spent some special time at the bench with her father, learning the art of diamond setting. She quickly realized that she wanted to do more in the jewelry business and landed a job at Tiffany & Co. in the buying office.
Karen recalls, “I had an incredible time working there and learned so much. The knowledge I gained at Tiffany catapulted me into specializing in better goods, and in 1996, I opened my own diamond business, K. Rosengart.”
