The new edition of the Première competition will evaluate projects and creations of jewels of any type, style, design, workmanship and size, without setting limits to the creativity and inspiration of each company and participant: the only requirement is the light that the jewel must be able to express. In short, maximum freedom.

«A theme that is as fascinating and free as possible, that of light. We have materials of all kinds at our disposal, from traditional gold, silver and precious stones to unexplored inventions of extraordinary new products and designs. Let’s try to surprise and be surprised».

Countdown to Oroarezzo (from 7 to 10 May), who after the covid must now deal with the uncertainties caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Thus, after the olive tree symbolically planted at the entrance to the fair that hosted Vicenzaoro in March, the concept will also be reaffirmed by the event scheduled in the Tuscan city. In fact, the set-up also includes in this case the trees that symbolize peace, the olive trees, at the entrance to Arezzo Fiere e Congressi.

Life is a precious art. A jewel between past and present, between near and distant cultures that creates novelty and beauty. Agreements of light, splendor and peace.

The event dedicated to the Italian and international excellences of goldsmithing, organized by Ieg (Italian Exhibition Group) brings together the first part of the supply chain, from goldsmiths to cash and carry, with an eye to technological innovation, already underlined at the entrance to the district fair that reopens its doors to the business of the sector.

Three years after the last edition, the preparations for Oroarezzo can only be accompanied by the satisfaction of finally finding ourselves in favorable conditions to ensure that it will take place in the presence of a decisive appointment for the gold and jewelery business. It is the testimony of the unanimous commitment and an ever stronger dialogue with the Arezzo industry protagonists, institutions and trade associations. The collaboration continues with the stakeholders of a fundamental district for the success of Made in Italy jewelery in the world, always alongside IEG in the numerous initiatives with which we have kept the spotlight on this territory even during the pandemic – from Premiere Digital Edition in 2020 at We Are Jewelery and at the First Italian Jewelery Summit last year, in addition to international events such as Vicenzaoro and JGT Dubai – it proved to be strategic in the overall recovery of the entire sector.

Yellow gold with white flag. The Oroarezzo fair has been definitively canceled. It was scheduled for April 18-21, but the coronavirus had prompted IEG, the company that organizes the event, to postpone the appointment to June 19-22. Even that date, however, turned out to be optimistic and OroArezzo was moved to 18-21 July. In the middle of summer. Now the decision has come to suspend the fair for 2020. Too complicated. Too many companies that have lost months of work. Too many buyers who have given up for fear of contagion or because the date has proved irreconcilable.

Ieg, the Italian Exhibition Group, in concert with the production and association leaders of the sector, has thus decided to postpone and look at 2021, «as the conditions for offering customers the overall and high standard of international buyers that have always been guaranteed to a market, do not yet exist of great value for the country ».

Instead of the appointment, Ieg proposes Oroarezzo On Stage, which will host a virtual showcase capable of showing the creations of the client companies to the world markets, companies that will be assisted in the creation of professional photographic services for a catalog enhanced with photos, videos and news of product.

OroArezzo returns with Premiere, the dedicated competition (again this year) to the ︎ bracelet ♦
OroArezzo returns (5-8 May 2018). The appointment, since last organized by Italian Exhibition Group is a point of reference especially for the world of goldsmith production that has one of its strengths in the Arezzo area. As always, this year OroArezzo hosts, next to the stands and the commercial activity, also a stage for companies. In particular, with the Premiere competition, which sees the jewels of companies in contention: that of 2018 is the edition number 28. Curiously, the theme chosen this year is the same as last year: the bracelet. With a particular focus on iron: almost a provocation in the land specializing in gold processing. The jury that will examine and evaluate the creations will be chaired by Beppe Angiolini, art director of OroArezzo and honorary president of the Camera Nazionale Buyer della Moda.
