The moment you looked up and felt ‘’Eureka!’’ or the moment you saw something or someone and knew what you wanted…A Divine inspiration, an all-traffic-stopping moment? We all know that most jewelry collections start with inspired jewelry designers, but what the hell is inspiration anyway? 

From the 9th till the 13th of September, Vicenza's beautiful town flooded again with jewelry professionals. Despite the many challenges, such as soaring energy prices, to name just one, the mood on the floor was remarkably optimistic. 

VicenzaOro has grown to become one of the most critical jewelry shows worldwide.
Promises are that this September is going to be spectacular. Here are five reasons why jewelry professionals should visit the show!

The Metaverse.
Some think it's the new exciting online world: a dream, the next big idea!
Others warn that it might be a Utopian dream for now, but it could just as well feel like a mall if we don't watch out.
What is the Metaverse exactly?
And what opportunities does it offer for jewelry businesses?

Jewelry shows offer a great opportunity of bringing together people and businesses. Is there room for improvement? Always. One of the things that matter to me is the missed opportunity of engaging audiences during talks and speeches. It could be so much better! 

Animals and jewelry are a dreamlike combination. The beauty of the animal itself plus the symbolism that we attribute to them makes us fall in love over and over again with animal jewelry creations made by the most gifted jewelry designers and artisans.

Beautiful sunny Capri proves to be such a wonderful place to buy jewelry! My recent visit to the Italian island gave me a good insight into the positive and relaxed luxurious vibe of this magnificent island near Naples.

Mogok. The name of this legendary valley of rubies in Burma has become synonymous with the finest rubies in the world.

Over the past decades, the supply of Burmese Mogok rubies has dwindled, and this isn't only because the U.S. government posed sanctions on the military government of Myanmar (Burma).
