"I love gemstones and through 30 years my passion for gemstone jewellery have been the driving force behind Carré Jewellery. Singly, or better, in combination, gemstones create colourful magic by enhancing each other’s nuances. This is what I love most about jewellery making. I hereby invite you to join me on a journey into a world of gemstones."
- Shiri Rosenzweig

Gems are the wonders of nature. They are created from the intense pressure underneath the Earth's crust, attained by mining or found in river beds. Chemistry and temperature are the determining factors in gemstone colours, explaining why a single kind of gemstone can span a range of different colours. They all have unique characteristics. Composition, colour, transparency, inner structure and optical effects distinguish them from each other. Gemstones are most often cut into beautiful faceted cuts or cabochons, depending on what is most suited for the gemstone.

Since 1991 we have worked with more than 900 different gemstones. Our mission is to share the joy of possessing and wearing precious jewellery with gemstones in all shapes and colours.

Shiri Rosenzweig opened the door to the first Carré store in 1994 and thereby placed her universe of jewellery in the heart of old Copenhagen. The store is not only an exhibition of new enchanting jewellery but also of fascinating curiosities, Shiri has collected from her travels all over the world.

In 1997 the unique Carré store in Århus opened, and in 2002 a beautiful Carré store on the main street in Lyngby followed along. In 2009 Carré opened a store in the wonderful city of Aalborg.

Our head office is placed in Lyngby. Our jewellery can - besides our own stores and webshop - be found with selected online retailers, stores and exclusive malls around the world.


I was born in Tel Aviv in 1966. My mother is Danish, and my father is Israeli. Diamonds have always been an important part of my life. I qualified for my diamond grading certificate in 1991, allowing me to sell diamonds professionally. Soon I discovered a world of jewellery, pearls and other gemstones - a whole new world opened up for me. Since then, I have worked with numerous gemstones. More than 900 varieties have been through my hands in all kinds of beautiful cuts. The fascination with their different characteristics and beautifully combining them in jewellery is the driving force behind my work.


Namasté means "The light in me sees the light in you". This wonderful greeting from the East is a daily inspiration for our team. It reminds us that the aesthetics, universe and values of Carré Jewellery take inspiration from the East.
