About
THE DESIGNER
Following in her father Avi Rogel’s z”l footsteps, Shlomit Rogel continues the legacy of the family business alongside her sister, Maya, as the CEO and Head Designer at Rogel Diamonds in the Israeli Diamond Exchange and internationally under her eponymous jewelry label, “Shlomit Rogel”.
The youngest of three sisters, Shlomit grew up admiring her father for being a successful businessman in his field, but most importantly an honest and inspirational individual. Following her studies at the Israel Institute of Technology (otherwise known as the ‘Technion’), Shlomit began working in a high-tech company. It is her experience in the Israeli and global high-tech industry as an engineer, analyst, production manager- as well as her work within the international acquisitions and logistics departments- that enabled Shlomit to gain a comprehensive view of business management early on.
Shlomit quit the high-tech world and joined Rogel Diamonds after her father became ill. Nine months after she officially joined the family trade, her father and CEO of Rogel Diamonds Avi Rogel z”l passed. Shlomit reflects on her time working with her father as a precious learning experience which altered the trajectory of her career.
Today, the mother of three, CEO and Head Designer persists in her mission of supplying top quality diamonds and jewels, while maintaining a high-end experience for each individual customer through her local and international business: Rogel Diamonds and Shlomit Rogel.
Heritage & Legacy
The story of Rogel Diamonds began with the hard work and determination of Avi (Askapa) Rogel z”l. As a young man, Mr. Rogel worked at a diamond manufacturing factory during the dawn of the diamond and jewelry business development in Israel. An artist and lover of aesthetics- Mr. Rogel received training in cutting and polishing diamonds early on, based on his exceptional talent and motivation.
Like many Jewish families from the diaspora seeking to assimilate in Israeli culture, Mr. Rogel’s older brother Yaacov, proposed to change the family name from the Spanish Askapa to Rogel. The new surname was based on the Biblical Ein Rogel- an ancient, meaningful location on the outskirts of Jerusalem. Unfortunately, Yaacov passed away before he was able to make his dream a reality, but his brother, Avi, carried out his brother’s wish.
Yaacov left a substantial sum of money from his life insurance and named his younger brother as the beneficiary. During this time, the factory where Mr. Rogel was working for experienced financial hardships. Despite his young age, Mr. Rogel bought the factory, and became the owner. Thus in 1976, the prestigious diamond jewelry brand, Rogel Diamonds, became a successful reality in the Israel Diamond Exchange.
The Rogel family emphasizes dedication and love as their way of carrying on the history of the family brand, founded by their father. The continuation of integrity, reliability and personal connection to others is of the utmost importance for Shlomit Rogel. The company strives to empower female leadership in the diamond and jewelry business- an industry known to be largely male-dominated throughout history. The Rogel Diamonds and Shlomit Rogel teams are proudly female led.
