Gerard Rene was founded by Valdine Henrius-Whitter.
Raised in Brooklyn, New York City, Valdine’s journey into the world of jewelry and design began at a young age. As a young girl, she found joy and inspiration in the intricate details of her mother’s jewelry pieces and the stories they held. Throughout the years, she immersed herself in the artistry of jewelry making and has found immense fulfillment in designing unique and personalized pieces for herself, her loved ones and her clients.
Gerard Rene is Valdine’s heartfelt tribute to her grandfather’s legacy and a manifestation of her dedication to creating exquisite and timeless jewelry pieces that evoke beauty, elegance, and individuality.
A hardworking man, a devoted husband and a doting father from Jeremie, Haiti - Gerard Rene was a man who spoiled his wife and children with everything he had - catering to each individual's unique needs and personalities.
At Gerard Rene, luxury and exclusivity are woven into the fabric of every creation. We believe that every woman deserves to be adorned with pieces that reflect her unique journey.

You may be asking yourself:
“How do I ensure my new ring is brilliantly cut with exceptional clarity?”
“Will I receive true value for my investment?”
“How can I trust the quality and authenticity of what I’m buying?”
“What should I do with the rings I already own?”
Or perhaps, “Can I even afford a custom ring right now?”
