Over two hundred jewellery designers from all over the world have drawn inspiration from the “New Traditional Jewellery” theme. This has resulted in an absolutely impressive collection of pectoral ornaments, necklaces, caps, rings, clasps, arm ornaments, and a lot more.
All designers have one thing in common: they add a new and contemporary chapter to the long history of jewellery in an age-old costume tradition. Ornaments that, from time immemorial, have served as symbol bearers and that are now disappearing from the street scene all over the world. New Traditional Jewellery wants to keep this cultural heritage alive by lending it a new form.
From more than 200 anonymous entries the jury has selected fifty which are to be exhibited at home and abroad. The first showing will be at the international SIERAAD, jewellery and silver design fair. Subsequently, four winners have been selected and a student prize will be awarded as well. Each of the five winners has proved to be capable of providing an ancient theme with a modern content, presenting the result in an, as to quality, equally superior but contemporary form.
It is the combination of emotion, story, past and craftsmanship that moves and impresses the jury....
