The biggest jewelry shows in the United States are set to begin and Italian jewelry companies will have the biggest presence with more than 130 manufacturers and brands. It is the largest representation of any country, and these companies are ready to do business with U.S. retailers.
They will come from the world’s most important jewelry districts in Italy and every other part of the Italian peninsula to present everything from everyday jewels to exceptional one-of-a-kind pieces, all created in adherence to Made-in-Italy craftsmanship and with the flair and style that is uniquely Italian.
Each Italian company features an intriguing blend of skills, passion, creative abilities, intuition in anticipating future trends, product and process innovation and unique aesthetic taste. From upscale products with precious gems, pearls and coral, wrought in gold and silver, to creations that reflect contemporary fashion and taste.
Approximately 100 of the manufacturing companies will be exhibiting at JCK Las Vegas, the largest luxury jewelry trade fair in North America, in the Venetian hotel and casino.
They’ll be presenting everything from gold chains, silver jewels, cameos and coral jewelry, packaging and everything else that one can imagine. Many of these companies are not household names, but they create many of the jewels that fill store shelves throughout the U.S. and the world.
Meanwhile, the Couture Show at the Wynn Las Vegas will feature some of the most iconic jewelry brands in the world including emerging designers. These companies and others fully represent the fashion, design and style of Italy that is admired throughout the world.
The United States has always been a long-standing and vital market for the Italian jewelry industry. However, during the Coronavirus pandemic the region has become the largest market for Italian jewelry. According to FEDERORAFI, the U.S. is the top market for Italian jewelry exports. The Italian Trade Agency in Houston is behind the Extraordinary Italian Jewelry promotion, placing a special focus on the U.S. market.
While the jewelry companies represent a variety of materials, styles and techniques, the bond that unites this group is the dedication to Italian design and craftsmanship and the “Made in Italy” merchandise mark indicating that a product is all planned, manufactured and packed in Italy. These characteristics are recognized throughout the world for its uniqueness and high quality in design and craftsmanship.
Each Italian company exhibiting in Las Vegas features an intriguing blend of skills, passion, creative abilities, intuition in anticipating future trends, product and process innovation and unique aesthetic taste.
