<\/strong>The aim of the competition is to present the professional skills of goldsmiths and young goldsmith apprentices specializing in traditional and modern goldsmithing techniques, to support professional goldsmithing education and encourage professional development, as well as to create original designs made according to individual needs and to promote jewellery and goldsmithing items made using \u201eBaltic Gold\u201d.<\/p>\n

The competition will traditionally be held in two age categories: juniors (young goldsmiths aged up to 22 who are studying or starting to work in the goldsmithing trade) and seniors (individuals working as goldsmiths or amber artisans with confirmed professional qualifications). They will compete under a common theme, which is \u201eAmber Dreams \u2013 Jewellery\u201d.  <\/p>\n

Entries for the competition will consist of individual pieces or sets of jewellery made from precious metals, amber and gemstones. Each participant may submit up to 4 works, which must include amber elements and should not have been previously exhibited.<\/p>\n

From this year, the competition bears the name of the deceased in 2021. Of Karol Kowalski<\/a>, ..., the originator of this competition, a goldsmith greatly committed to promoting crafts and vocational education. He was also one of the initiators of reinstating the \u201eArtist Craftsman\u201d title awarded by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. For his achievements, he received the \u201eGoldsmith of the Year\u201d title and was awarded the St. Eligius Medal, the honorary title \u201eMaster of Artistic Crafts in the Goldsmith-Jeweller Profession\u201d from the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in Warsaw, the Bronze Cross of Merit, and the \u201eKili\u0144ski Sabre\u201d from the Polish Crafts Association.<\/p>\n

The Amber Craft Competition is an excellent opportunity to showcase your skills and contribute to the development of jewellery art. It's worth taking part, not only to compete with other talented goldsmiths, but also to gain new experiences, inspiration, and meet other enthusiasts of this beautiful craft \u2013 he concluded.
