Palakiss plays a central role for ready-to-deliver collections and immediate orders, while T.Gold showcases machinery and industrial excellence. VO Vintage, dedicated to vintage jewelry and watches, reflects the growing interest in heritage, collectability and timeless design.

Throughout the event, talks, panels and industry meetings addressed key topics such as design evolution, market scenarios and sustainability. These moments of exchange help professionals anticipate change and adapt their strategies in an increasingly complex global market.
This year’s edition also introduced a renewed vision through the theme People, Product, Places, highlighting the importance of relationships, creativity and context within the jewelry system. The programme extended beyond the exhibition halls, with cultural initiatives and events across the city of Vicenza strengthening the connection between the fair and Italian heritage.
