Precisely on Valentine’s Day, in fact, there are the Sweet Conversations of Redefining the Jewel, by Sonia Patrizia Catena.

The jewels are made of natural and sustainable materials, but there are also jewelry-themed sweets, to satisfy sight and palate. Everything will be at Café Marinetti in combination with the traditional Sunday brunch. The protagonists are ten jewels designed by Italian and foreign artists combined with the creations of four confectioners, one for each city, of Bologna, Verona, Florence and Genoa. The jewels will be exhibited together with the creations of the involved pastry chef, which will serve as inspiration. Hence the name of the event, “sweet conversation”.
Here are the names of the participants: MICartapesta aka Michela Boschetto, Chimajarno, Elena dp Crea, Fragiliadesign, Frilli Colombo, Giuliana Kobayashi Mantovi, Rita Martinez Art Jewelry, Francesca R. Sansoni, Ag Art aka Agnese Taverna and Maria Tenore.
After Bologna, the sweet conversations about the jewels will be in Verona in April, coinciding with the opening of the Due Torri hotel terraces, in May in Genoa (Hotel Bristol), during the Mother’s Day, in June in Florence, at the Bristol Palace, during Pitti Uomo. Margherita Donato
