Haute Jewels Geneva expands and multiplies. Four brands participated in the first edition in January 2019, organized at the Fairmont hotel in the Swiss city (Yoko London, Roberto Coin, Sutra and Crivelli). Then, the event founded and organized by the CEO of Yoko London, Michael Hakimian, attracted other jewelery Maisons. The last 2023 edition at the end of March had risen to 23 brands. And the next one, which will take place from Monday 8 April to Monday 15 April, will expand into two locations: the InterContinental Hotel will be added next to the Fairmont Grand Hotel. Other jewelery companies will therefore be added, increasing capacity by over 50%.

All 23 luxury jewelry brands that participated in the 2023 event will return for the 2024 edition: Yoko London, Roberto Coin, Sutra, Crivelli, Bayco, Eto Maria, Stenzhorn, Marco Bicego, Mariani, Palmiero, Picchiotti, Gregolane, Hans D. Krieger, Leo Pizzo, Verdi, Annamaria Cammilli, Sicis, Baraka, Busatti 1947, Karen Suen, Casato, Scott West and Pasquale Bruni.

Michael Hakimian, CEO of Yoko London and founder of Haute Jewels Geneva

What promises to be a small exclusive fair was born from the need of jewelry companies to present themselves to an audience that no longer has the stage of Baselworld, which ended two years ago, at its disposal. A first taste of Haute Jewels Geneva took place already in 2019, with the first four jewelry brands (they were Yoko London, Crivelli, Sutra and Roberto Coin), while in the two previous years the idea was frozen by the epidemic. Visitors, in the organizers’ program, “will experience an intimate and luxurious environment for jewelry buyers and suppliers to conduct business, a concept that seems even more relevant after the restrictions imposed by the pandemic. With the opportunity to see each other face to face again, it promises to be a dynamic event, which combines the strength, creativity and experience of the participating brands “. Visitor registration is done on the site dedicated to the event.
