About Charlene K

Charlene K was founded by Teong Kay and his wife Gigi, longtime residents of Beverly Hills with a passion for beautiful design. The perfect way to describe Charlene K in a few simple words is contemporary, classic, trendy and perfect for any occasion. The collection features gold, sterling silver, rose gold and 14k gold vermeil metal tones along with rare gemstones. Charlene K has been featured in many magazines and TV networks such as Instyle, Life & Style, People, Star, California Apparel News, OC Register, WWD, E! Channel, Extra and soon to be The Oprah Network. To name a few celebrities that love Charlene K are Eva Longoria, Angela Bassett, Tyra Banks, Hillary Duff, Audrina Patridge, Emanuelle Chriqui, Han Ye Seul, Ha Ji-won, Kyle Richards, Taylor Armstrong, and Bai Ling. Teong Kay was born and raised in Burma, where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in business. Gigi was born and educated in Shanghai. Eventually Teong immigrated to the U.S in the late 1970’s with his wife and one year old son, Glenn. Coming to the U.S. wasn’t an easy task for Teong, having only thirty-five dollars in his pocket. He started working at an entry level position in fashion to make a living and quickly learned about the industry. Just a few years later, Teong had already opened several boutiques of his own. Shortly after that, he founded two very successful dress lines, Pave and St. Romei. Both collections were selling to some of the best stores in the country including Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus. Following the successful launch, Teong moved to the former home of actress Jane Wyman and President Ronald Reagan in Beverly Hills. The jewelry collection is actually named after Teong and Gigi’s ten year old daughter Charlene. Today, Charlene K collection has become a key vendor in hundreds of stores all across the United States, Canada, Dubai, London, China, Korea, Japan, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia and Europe.
