Vicenzaoro: At the Heart of Jewelry from January 16th to 20th

And yet, this small town of some 100,000 souls has many assets to offer, notably its downtown area, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site, where charming streets are punctuated by sumptuous palaces designed by the Italian Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. However, while the sites are certainly worth a visit, it is for an entirely different reason that, twice a year, in January and September, the town, renowned for its historical expertise in goldsmithing, attracts the attention of jewelry professionals. For its winter edition, from January 16 to 20, Vicenzaoro is once again preparing to set the trend in the jewelry sector. Over 1300 exhibitors covering the entire value chain have already been announced, including many houses from the new jewelry scene as well as major jewelry signatures, such as Roberto Coin, Damiani, Crivelli, Fope, Nanis, Leo Pizzo, Roberto Demeglio, and Carrera y Carrera, among others. /public-objects/0ae4ac5f-0a19-479d-9895-496788d08a97-966bc20f-f89f-4fbf-a638-978ff9dd157b-FIERA_VICENZA_hall022560.webp Image sélectionnée More than a showcase of novelties, Vicenzaoro positions itself primarily as an essential business and cultural platform for the industry.
