Visionary designer Amedeo Scognamiglio joins The Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2026 jury
Celebrating a virtuoso who not only preserves legacy but elevates it.
The Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2026 , organized by GJEPC, is thrilled to announce that the legendary Award winning jewellery designer Amedeo Scognamiglio—the man who made heritage “haute”—is joining the distinguished jury panel. At The Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2026, GJEPC celebrate a visionary who not only preserves legacy but elevates it.
Amedeo isn’t just a designer; he’s a disruptor of the best kind. Hailing from a lineage of Italian mastery, he has achieved the impossible: making the ancient art of the cameo feel like the most avant-garde accessory in the room.
By leading two powerhouse brands, he manages a rare creative duality:The Preservationist: Honoring the meticulous, old-world soul of Italian artistry.The Modernist: Redefining luxury through a bold, contemporary lens that speaks to the “Quantum Couture” era.
At its core, The Artisan 2026 is about the stories told through stone and metal. Having a storyteller of Amedeo’s caliber on our jury ensures that we aren’t just looking for beauty—we’re looking for soul, legacy, and the “next” in jewellery evolution.
The Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2026 will be held on 8th April 2026 at JWCC, Mumbai. Theme for the prestigious Artisan Jewellery Design Awards 2026, “Quantum Couture – Re-Engineering Beauty and Cultural Codes
