About Karl Scheufele III & family

Owners of Swiss jewelry and watchmaker Chopard, Karl Scheufele III and his family control one of the best-known luxury accessory lines in the world.

A goldsmith and watchmaker by training, the German-born Scheufele bought the Geneva-based company in 1963 and transformed it into a global brand.

More than 50 years later, Scheufele remains active in the company, though his children Karl-Friedrich and Caroline lead the business.

Chopard's jewelry is a regular on the red carpet, with 11 Oscar winners having won while wearing Chopard, including Kate Winslet and Julianne Moore.
