Janine Renard
(Belgium, 1947)
Janine Renard was born in Belgium in 1947. During the ten years (1970–1980) she spent working at the renowned Maison Wolfers in Brussels, Janine Renard developed a sense of precision and an exceptional mastery of jewelry-making and goldsmithing.
For her, a piece of jewelry is a sculpture meant to be worn - and thus admired from every angle.
In 1980, she became an independent designer. Full of inventive imagination and artistic genius, she earned numerous awards in Belgium and abroad, including the prestigious De Beers Grand Prize in 1989 - the diamond world’s equivalent of an Oscar.
Like a painter or sculptor, she exhibits her creations around the globe (Europe, the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan), drawing inspiration from the depths of history and pursuing, with great sensitivity, an exploration of the most captivating materials.
