Reza founder Alexandre Reza spent most of the 20th century traveling the globe sourcing precious gemstones for the world’s premiere jewelers. This experience allowed him to hone his expertise and establish relationships with artists and craftsmen, building toward the launch of his own eponymous jewelry house on the Place Vendome in Paris in the 1950s and soon after in Geneva, Monte Carlo, and Cannes.
Today, Olivier Reza embraces the legacy established by his father. His own keen eye for curating jewels and his ability to combine the aesthetic influences of New York and Paris has afforded Olivier a clear vision for the house’s future. With the upcoming launch of a new website, Reza will create holistic digital and physical experiences across the entire customer journey, ushering in a new era for the 90-year-old brand.
