New York—The Edit - A Gallery of Italian Jewelry Masterpieces is a new trade show coming to New York City Oct. 29-30.

Billed as “an intimate showcase,” the two-day event will feature a blend of exhibitions, private viewings, and education sessions.

It will center on the craftsmanship and design prowess of leading Italian jewelers and “Made in Italy” designers.

The participating exhibitors embody a distinctive vision, bridging heritage with innovation, and reinterpreting Italian craftsmanship for show attendees to experience Italian jewelry as cultural heritage and future-forward design, event organizers said.

The Edit is organized into four thematic worlds: sculptural jewels that echo the grandeur of the Rinascimento; organic creations that channel the myths and colors of the Mediterranean; radiant silhouettes capturing the glamour of La Dolce Vita; and bold avant-garde forms expressing the radical energy of Futurismo and contemporary art movements.


The Edit was organized by ITA-Houston (one of the Italian Trade Agency offices in the United States), in collaboration with Italy's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.

It is curated by creative director and Italian luxury trends forecaster Paola De Luca and her team.

“In a highly competitive and uncertain global scenario, the Italian jewelry sector, supported by ITA, is committed to delivering design excellence, high craftsmanship, innovation, and advanced technology,” said De Luca.

“At the same time, the sector is investing in education, supporting retailers with insights, and fostering consumer culture. With Italian tariffs set at 15 percent lower than in other jewelry supplying countries, Italy can represent a strong and strategic partner for U.S. retailers.”

The Edit is set to take place at Sixth Floor Loft located at 873 Broadway in New York City.

It will open on Wednesday, Oct. 29, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The exhibition will be on the second floor of the venue and the education sessions on the sixth floor.

“The Art & Tech of Italian Jewelry 2026 – Exploring craftsmanship, innovation, and the design codes shaping tomorrow” will kick off the education sessions at 10 a.m., followed by “From Luxury to Value – Understanding consumers, market volatility, and the future of jewelry demand.”

After the show, a cocktail event will run from 6 to 9 p.m.

On Thursday, Oct. 30, the show will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Interested attendees can register to attend The Edit through the form at this link.
