The show is held in Vicenza, the heart of one of the world’s most iconic and productive gold jewelry centers. Manufacturers, designers and artisans will be center of attention. However, every part of Italy will be represented, including the two other gold jewelry centers of Valenza and Arezzo, and the coral and cameo center of Torre del Greco. The one thing they all have in common is that they all represent The Extraordinary Italian Jewelry brand and the prestigious Made in Italy merchandise mark, which indicates that a product is planned, manufactured and packed in Italy.
