Jewelry ideas take shape at Oroarezzo, the event dedicated to the best Italian gold, silver and jewellery manufacturing for the design and development of unique creations and private
labels, a segment shown to be increasing considerably in the luxury and fashion sector. From 13th to 16th May 2023, in the halls of Arezzo Fiere e Congressi, the market, major brands, wholesalers and international retailers will encounter Made in Italy design and innovation, attention to sustainability and manufacturing
craftsmanship. A renewed offer due to the evolution that Italian Exhibition Group has imprinted on the 42nd edition of the
Arezzo format. Together with Arezzo Fiere e Congressi, the Arezzo-Siena Chamber of Commerce, Arezzo Municipality, the Province of Arezzo and the Region of Tuscany, IEG is enhancing and relaunching the centrality of Italian manufacturing. By rearranging the exhibition layout, it will be easier to navigate between the different merchandise categories (gold, silverware, jewellery, tech, cash & carry), which will boost business matching and improve the buyers’ experience in terms of greater effectiveness and efficiency. The project has convinced new companies to participate and is also appreciated by international buyers who are confirming their participation and registering on The Jewellery Golden Cloud digital platform, which will allow them to make contact with exhibitors and organise their agendas for the days of the show.
