    • I found my jewellery fascination – a conversation with Prof. Elżbieta Kłosińska

      First came a fascination with People's Republic of Poland jewellery, and then a fortuitously found pendant by Danka Czapnik. It was precisely then that Prof. Elżbieta Kłosińska, an archaeologist and collector, discovered the artist whose work she has remained faithful to this day.

    • T² – „Momentary” Amber Duet

      The jurors of the Amberif Selection 2026 competition were unaware that their decision would determine the fate of a new jewellery project.

      During the AMBER Vibes gala, amber returned to the runway as a significant element in the narrative of contemporary jewellery. In the industrial, dark-toned space of the Amber Expo hall, several shows were presented, combining fashion and contemporary goldsmithing art – in a format that harks back to the tradition of events accompanying the AMBERIF trade fair.
