This competition, for 20 years now, has been consistently promoting jewellery and goldsmithing items made using amber. It serves as a platform for showcasing the goldsmithing skills of Polish artisans, as well as a place for discovering previously unknown talents and promoting those already found.<\/p>\n
Traditionally, the results were announced during the AMBERIF SPRING 2023 International Amber and Jewellery Fair in Gda\u0144sk. The competition jury, consisting of respected authorities in the goldsmithing world, selected the laureates who presented their works in two age categories: juniors (young goldsmiths up to 22 years of age, studying or starting a career as a goldsmith) and seniors (individuals practising as goldsmiths or amber artisans, possessing confirmed professional qualifications).<\/p>\n
In the seniors category, the awards went to:<\/strong> <\/p>\n 1st place: Krzysztof Konrad Bondaruk \u2013 work \u201eTurkana Amber\u201d <\/p>\n This set is made from hand-moulded carbon fibre and gilded with 18-carat gold. It is adorned with amber, lapis lazuli, lolite, opal, and garnet. The inspirations visible in the name come from the Turkana ethnic group, who inhabit north-western Kenya and are renowned for their colourful jewellery made from large beaded hoops. These are evident in the jewellery in the form of a necklace and its colours \u2013 consciously less intense \u2013 explained Krzysztof Bondaruk.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Second place: Dominika Gawlak-D\u0142ugosz \u2013 work \u201eHerald\u201d<\/p>\n 3rd place: Jacek Ostrowski \u2013 work \u201ePearl of the Baltic\u201d<\/p>\n 1st place: Iga Piasecka \u2013 work \u201ePeople like flowers\u201d<\/p>\n 2nd place: Sofiia Semeniuta \u2013 work \u201eShattered Dreams\u201d<\/p>\n 3rd place: Hanna J\u00f3\u017awicka \u2013 work \u201eSecrets of the Ocean Depths\u201d<\/p>\n Dominika Plaminiak for the work \u201eThe First Dance\u201d<\/p>\n Weronika Zar\u0119bska for the work \u201eTailored for the 21st Century\u201d<\/p>\n Paulina Wr\u00f3bel for the work \u201eMuszlak\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Amber inspirations \u2013 this is the theme of the 20th edition of the National Gilder and Jeweller Competition \u201eAmber Craft\u201d, which showcases the professional skills of Polish gilders and young apprentices of the goldsmithing art.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":19510,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"slim_seo":{"title":"Znamy laureat\u00f3w konkursu \u201eBursztynowe Rzemios\u0142o\u201d - Amber Portal","description":"Amber inspirations \u2013 this is the theme for the 20th edition of the All-Polish Goldsmiths and Jewellers Competition \u201eAmber Craft,\u201d which showcases the professional skills of Polish"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[140],"tags":[249],"sekcja":[243],"class_list":["post-19520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-konkursy","tag-bursztynowe-rzemioslo","sekcja-design-rzemioslo"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19510"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19520"},{"taxonomy":"sekcja","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amber.com.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sekcja?post=19520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
