Inhorgenta

The small circles of Liliana Guerreiro

Liliana Guerreiro, the pleasure of design in Portugal ♦

Years ago she won the Best Piece of Jewelry Award at the Inhorgenta in Monaco thanks to her special design: an intertwining of threads and tiny circles that form gold and diamond jewelry. But not only. As in the Elementos collection, which uses the element of thread in an innovative way and small rounds that make up a sort of puzzle, or Malha (inspired by traditional nineteenth-century reliquaries), Cheio de Ramo (ironic use of filigree) and Fio , with the gold thread or in gilded silver used in different combinations of thicknesses, materials (gold and silver) and three textures.

Another peculiarity concerns the material it uses: 19-karat gold (instead of the usual 18-karat one), but also completely oxidized silver. Liliana Guerreiro is one of the best known Portuguese jewelry designers. She was born Viana do Castelo, Minho (north of Portugal), a land with a centuries-old history in the production of jewelry. Her work is inspired by one of the most traditional craft techniques, filigree.

Inhorgenta also canceled




It was obvious, but now the official news has arrived: Inhorgenta Munich, which was scheduled for April 15-19, has also been canceled. Germany’s most important jewelery and watch fair has announced the elimination of the event for 2021. The cause is obvious, and what is known is not worth repeating. Inhorgenta, among other things, had already been postponed compared to the normal schedule in February. Nothing to do: the next appointment has been scheduled for 11-14 February 2022. Like other exhibition companies, Inhorgenta has also provided a digital alternative, Trendfactory, for autumn 2021.

Unfortunately, recent developments in relation to the coronavirus pandemic have not moved in the direction we were hoping for. There are still far-reaching restrictions on international travel and contacts. Furthermore, the spread of the mutated virus poses a significant risk in terms of further infection process. Even if a fair in person were possible in the first half of the year thanks to the local Munich situation, Inhorgenta Munich would not be able to live up to being a very successful international flagship event. We have therefore decided to cancel Inhorgenta Munich 2021.

Anna and Alex, artistic bijoux




Anna and Alex, the author’s jewelry that are fun like many jewels can not be.
Two girlfriends, the same passion: the artistic bijoux. Those that are not accessories that are assembled for hobby, do not use substandard materials, they are not the result of estrus random and often tacky. It’s the opposite. Anna and Alex proposes a type of jewelry that is signed, the result of a clear creative, original, quality. They work in Rome, but they have a history with so many different experiences. The biography of Anna Neri, born in Italy, records that she lived in Los Angeles and Pittsburgh, where she graduated in business administration, with a specialization in international marketing. In Rome Anna began his career, instead, in tourism and luxury.

Alessandra Sales came instead in New York, but it is also grown in Turin, Verona and Geneva. After studying History and Law, Alessandra has been working in the world of external relations, up to direction of the Bulgari communication structure. A successful career. But it’s no longer fun to create jewelery? The belief, the story goes, came with appreciation received by Emma Thompson in London, who has worn the Anna and Alex v at the premiere of her movie, Nanny Mc Phee. Now the brand is established and the two designers you do not lose the major events in the sector.

Corinna Heller wins Inhorgenta’s Designer of the Year Award. Here are his jewels ♦ ︎

Inhorgenta’s Designer of the Year Award is won by Corinna Heller. It’s one of the prizes of the Monaco-based jewelery event. A prize that Corinna Heller had already grazed two years ago, when she had arrived among the finalists. Corinna founded her little Maison in 1997 and has since designed around 300 jewels. German, Corinne Heller studied and worked in a small town in Baden-Württemberg, Schwäbisch Gmünd.

But the designer was able to build a personal path, with an immediately recognizable style.

Her jewels have simple lines, often accompanied by symbols like the cross and the heart, but combined in a personal way. She use gold, silver, but also large colored gems or diamonds, or large pearls. The shape of the jewels follows precise geometries, but not excessive, with a marked reference to architecture. The designer considers them objects that must be beautiful even when they are not worn, unlike what happens to accessories or clothes in fashion. Lavinia Andorno

Who runs for Inhorgenta

Among the novelties of the 2019 edition is the renewed Inhorgenta Award, dedicated to the world of jewelry and watch design. In the race there are three candidates for each of the seven of the eight categories. A difficult selection, given that the applications for participation were 140, a record. The introduction of a new category has also contributed to the success: Design Newcomer of the Year, which seems to have ignited the interest of several exhibitors, including a jewelery store in Mauritius, the Indian Ocean islands.
In the Fine Jewelry category, for example, German producers Gellner and Hans D. Krieger and the Spanish brand Facet Barcelona were selected, while for the Design Newcomer of the Year category the selected brands are Alessa Joosten, Karin Heimberg and Gitta Geschmück. It’s suspense for the winners. Cosimo Muzzano

Nanis wins the Inhorgenta award




Nanis wins the award in the Fine Jewelry category at Inhorgenta ♦ ︎
Nanis won the most prestigious award at Inhorgenta. The fair in Monaco, in fact, revealed the winners of his second competition, cut on the model of Palladio Awards of VicenzaOro. The Inhorgenta jury has therefore proclaimed Laura Bicego’s best brand for the Fine Jewelry category. In particular, the seven jurors enjoyed a bracelet from the Trasformista collection, with an enthusiastic motivation: “Made of 18-karat gold with a white diamond, it is a stroke of genius by the designer Laura Bicego. Intertwined together, individual links form a rigorous scheme. As soon as the bracelet unfolds, however, an imaginative sequence of golden elements of organic form emerges. The peculiarity: the bracelet can be transformed into a necklace. Wow!” Another prize went to Goldschmiede Dreier for design and to Gellner for the Fashion Jewelry category. Here is the list of the winners at Inhorgenta:
Fine Jewelry – Nanis
Fashion Jewelry – Gellner
Smart and Connected Watch – TAG Heuer
Designer – Goldschmiede Dreier
Watch Design – Junghans
Retailer of the year – Juwelier Hunke of Ludwigsburg
Best Piece of Jewelery Award – Jaime Moreno (voted by the audience)

Fiore Roberta in Santorini

At Inhorgenta 2018 the Santorini collection (and not only) of the Venetian Maison Roberta: pink gold and pavé diamonds on round shapes like the Greek island ♦︎
With a play on words we can say that Roberta Fiore never ceases to flourish. The proposal by company in S.Zenone Ezzelini (Treviso), founded in 1989 by Pietro Fusaro, it remains valid (we talked about here). Since the founder’s sons, Mirko and Andrea, have renewed the management, with the launch of the brand directly in stores in Italy and abroad, the company is strengthened. In the enclave of Venetian jewelry has developed with a precise identity, made up of collections that have achieved a good success. One of these is the Santorini collection, dedicated to the Greek island born of a volcano. The jewelry is made qith rose gold, very rose, along with blacks diamonds, very blacks, such as volcanic lava, and round shapes, with a very pronounced pavé and stones of various sizes, are the elements that distinguish this line of jewelry, which is not new but it seems never to fade.

Survey: the jewels for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is perfect for giving a jewel. 68% of Italians argue it ♦ ︎
Who knows if Valentine’s Day is the same for everyone? Certainly, according to research conducted on behalf of Inhorgenta, the jewelry fair in Munich (16-19 February), Italians see the jewel as an almost indispensable gift. The per cent emerges from the interviews on 1,118 consumers. Result: for 77% of Italians, a jewel must have a particular value and 40% are careful to choose a single piece. “Our survey shows that those who combine classic design with an individual note have a good chance of making their loved one happy on Valentine’s Day,” says Inhorgenta’s executive director Stefanie Mändlein. You can customize the jewels using, for example, with an engraving or a precious stone of your favorite color. Which? It also depends on the time and trends observed on the catwalks of New York, Paris or Milan. Although, when jewelry and stone are of value, fashion matters less: 64% of Italians are convinced that diamond jewelry in the future will be as current as today. And 68% want necklaces, rings and bracelets to be made of gold and diamonds or materials of the same value.
Also according to the Inhorgenta survey, to increase the value of the gift it is better to donate the jewel on a special day: 68% of Italians recommend to associate jewels with a special occasion, such as Valentine’s Day, to increase their emotional value. They accorde whit this opinion both women (73%) and men (63%).
