Glavni trg 24, Slovenj Gradec

The exhibition will showcase unique jewellery by Slovenian designers and goldsmiths, who work exclusively with Slovenian stones—discovered, cut, and polished in Slovenia. Stones and jewellery are deeply intertwined, telling stories that span millions of years while merging with contemporary design approaches.

Each original jewellery piece, adorned with natural stones from Slovenian deposits, highlights the beauty of nature through its colour, texture, and form, bringing together various local artisans in a harmonious creative dialogue.

This project was developed in collaboration with the Slovenian Museum of Natural History and the Chamber of Craft and Small Business of Slovenia (Goldsmiths and Jewellers Section). It is also linked to the MINFOS International Mineral Fair, continually growing and evolving. The exhibition is part of a sustainable initiative that emphasizes both Slovenia’s cultural and natural heritage.
