The event also features 18 national, regional and industry pavilions, including the UK Pavilion led by British Jewellery & Giftware International with sophisticated jewellery pieces from eight British designers.Two major jewellery design competitions discover and nurture new talentsThe HKTDC has always put great emphasis on discovering and nurturing emerging talents to further elevate the standard of jewellery design. This year, it has once again joined hands with The Jewellers’ & Goldsmiths’ Association of Hong Kong Limited, Hong Kong Jewellery & Jade Manufacturers Association, Hong Kong Jewelry Manufacturers' Association and the Diamond Federation of Hong Kong, China Ltd to organise the 7th International Jewellery Design Excellence (IJDE) Award and the 26th Hong Kong Jewellery Design Competition (HKJDC) to identify new talents. The award ceremonies for the two competitions were held this morning and the winning entries will be on display at the Hall 1D and 1E Concourse throughout the International Jewellery Show.  Held for the first time since the pandemic, the 2025 IJDE Award received an enthusiastic response with 80 award-winning entries from nine countries and regions competing for the highest honour – the “Champion of the Champions”. The entries were assessed by an esteemed panel of judges with Lawrence Ma, Chairman of the HKTDC Hong Kong International Jewellery Show and HKTDC Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show Fair Organising Committee, serving as chief judge and other members including representatives from L’ECOLE, School of Jewelry and the De Beers Group, among others.

The judging panel, made up of six professionals from diverse fields such as jewellery and design, selected the winning entries after careful consideration.

It showcases the beauty and versatility of natural coloured diamonds in both polished and rough formsInnovative and Uniqueness in Design AwardTitle of winning design: Summer Night CelebrationDesigner: Ying Chen CHEN （Taiwan）Category: EarringsDescription*:The inspiration for this piece comes from the mystical Barringtonia flower – a night fairy of the summer. Her life lasts only for a single nightAs dusk falls, she blooms in quiet elegance, only to gently descend with the first light of dawn. Though her existence is fleeting, she shines like fireworks and is breathtakingly beautifulIn this design, I sought to capture the moment when the stamens burst forth from the bud, with countless filaments unfurling like delicate tendrils, radiating boundless energy, vitality and freedom. This imagery deeply moved me, reminding me that “Life, like a flower, is fleeting – not measured by its length, but by whether it has burned brightly”As a jewellery designer, I often ask myself: what can I leave behind in this world' Perhaps, through my creations, I can transform those fleeting moments of emotion into eternal beautyCraftsmanship AwardTitle of winning design: Born of BlueDesigner: CHAN Hoi Yi （Hong Kong）Category: Pendant/BroochDescription*:Inspired by a proverb from my favorite philosopher Xunzi: "Born of blue, but better than blue"Blue dye was distilled from the indigo plant, but the dye was bluer than the plant itself. The knowledge taught by teacher made the students surpass the teacher himselfThis inspired my design like a visual metaphor: the Chinese-Cloud symbolises knowledge (an everchanging form/law of nature)ï¼›Chinese-Knots symbolise teacher/students (from a simple to a complex shape, to the deepening of blue colours. The progress symbolises self-improvement)I admire the vague elegance in this proverb. It's humble, pure, not flashy, with a scent of scholarly temperament, with goodwill and charm. It may sound a bit naive and idealistic today, but that’s what I want to express in this jewelleryAesthetics AwardTitle of winning design: ContemplationDesigner: Mariia EFIMOVA （Russia）Category: RingDescription*:In a world where everything happens too fast, beauty is commonplace, and we are often seduced only by the outside. But the underside sometimes says much more. "Contemplation" is an invitation to stop and a reminder that true beauty lies within us Table 2: Selected winning entries from the 26th Hong Kong Jewellery Design CompetitionOpen Group – Best of Show Award and Craftsmanship & Technology AwardTitle of design: Romance & ClassicsDesigner: Tse Ka-wingCategory: RingDescription*:Jewellery and renowned artworks share an inseparable relationship and common origins.

The Shield AI stack demonstrated autonomy skills for safe administrative phases of flight.What the flights proved was that GA-ASI aircraft can quickly go from company-written software, to government-provided, to other vendors' software as needed. This reinforces that the new generations of GA-ASI's UCAVs can seamlessly get upgrades as fast as developers finish them. Just as a mobile phone can get new and better features with each update, so too can new UCAVs get more capable and more versatile."This demonstration marks a significant achievement in our ongoing efforts to operationalize autonomy for UCAVs," said GA-ASI Vice President of Advanced Programs Michael Atwood. "Flying the government reference autonomy stack at Orange Flag 25-1 and utilizing the government-provided PVI underscores our commitment to delivering robust and adaptable autonomy solutions for the warfighter. We especially appreciate and salute the support we received from the 309th Software Engineering Group."The successful flight at Orange Flag 25-1 further validates GA-ASI's dedication to maturing its open standards-based autonomy software ecosystem.

中国结象徵老师/学生（从简单到复杂的形状，从浅蓝色到深蓝色，过程象徵着自我提升）。我欣赏这句名言中隐约的优雅。它谦逊、纯粹、不浮华，带着一股书生气质，带着善意与魅力。现在听起来可能有些幼稚和理想化，但这正是我想从这件珠宝中表达的。最佳整体美感奖得奖设计名称︰Contemplation设计师︰Mariia EFIMOVA （俄罗斯）类别︰戒指作品描述*：在这个一切都发生得太快的世界里，美丽已是司空见惯。我们经常被外在所诱惑。但内在有时传递的信息更为丰富。「Contemplation」邀请大家停下来，提醒大家真正的美丽存在于内心中。表二：第二十六届香港珠宝设计比赛部分得奖作品公开组大奖兼工艺技术奖作品名称︰浪漫与经典设计师︰谢嘉荣类别︰戒指作品描述*：珠宝与名画的关系密不可分，有着相同的渊源，设计师汲取了印象派画家莫内作品《睡莲》的元素，运用珠宝艺术完美展现经典名画的浪漫与典雅。公开组大奖作品名称︰维多利亚-蝶光设计师︰陈咏朗类别︰戒指作品描述*：在维多利亚港的景色中，化为一只巨蝶，展翅高飞，闪烁着五光十色的光影。幻蝶如梦，传递人们对未来的憧憬与渴望。每次翅膀扇动，都是对生命的赞歌。最后，幻蝶化了光境，吸引世人驻足凝望，心随之飞翔，共同编织那份对美好的追寻。成为梦的起点，绽放无尽可能。公开组大奖作品名称︰童趣设计师︰周天怡类别︰吊坠/胸针作品描述*：沙漏承载童年的梦，每一粒夜光沙如星尘滑落，捕捉时间的流逝与珍贵，将希望与光芒封存其中。吊坠可拆卸的设计，赋予自由更换彩沙或香氛沙的可能，增添珠宝独特魅力与个性。在流动的光影间，见证永恆与梦想的闪耀。学生组冠军作品名称︰蓝韵花语设计师︰刘康蓝就读学校︰香港理工大学类别︰戒指作品描述*：蓝色白花青的青花瓷不仅是一种美的体现，更是时间的沈淀和中华文化的延续。将其蓝白相映和纹饰繁复的特点融入珠宝设计中，表达了青花瓷恆久的吸引力和随着时间流逝依然闪耀的特质。学生组亚军作品名称︰圣华设计师︰麦泳梅就读学校︰圣方济各大学类别︰耳环作品描述*：耳环灵感源自教堂的神圣，造型勾勒出尖塔穹顶的典雅轮廓。穹顶上的十字架象徵着永恆的祝福，中央垂挂的紫色宝石犹如圣光在人间绽放，搭配色彩斑斓的珐瑯，就像教堂彩绘玻璃在阳光下的璀璨光华。每片珐瑯都象徵着信仰的力量，散发出持久而迷人的色彩。学生组季军作品名称︰红盐设计师︰刘卓礼就读学校︰港专学院类别︰手鍊/项鍊作品描述*：作品名取自苏轼《橄榄》的「纷纷青子落红盐」，当中的红盐有成熟橄榄之意。红盐落下后便不再使用树的养分，果中的种子重新发芽生长。橄榄树四季长青，开花结果，周而復始，光华不息，宛如代代相传的家族瑰宝。*资料由得奖者提供「第七届国际珠宝设计大奖」完整得奖名单：https://hkjewellery.hktdc.com/pdf/2025/IJDEA2025.pdf「第二十六届香港珠宝设计比赛」完整得奖名单：https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/sc/the-26th-hong-kong-jewellery-design-competition-result-announcement由香港贸易发展局主办的第41届香港国际珠宝展今日于湾仔会展隆重开幕，连同于亚博馆举行的第11届香港国际钻石、宝石及珍珠展，共匯聚来自全球超过40个国家及地区，约4,000家参展商。珠宝精粹廊展区内的维多利亚珠宝（展位：CEC GH-E08）以62卡祖母绿和逾3400颗宝石、钻石等打造的「烟花套链」，重现烟花绽放多彩的时刻。日本展商Jewelry of Raden & Urushi（展位：CEC 1CON-016）在珠宝设计精选展区，带来以18K 黄金、阿古屋珍珠、钻石、珍珠母贝镶嵌的龙造型胸针和吊坠。澳洲展商Autore Pearls Pty Ltd（展位：CEC GH-C32）展示的蛇形项链，镶有珍珠、钻石和宝石，活灵活现。今年珠宝展增设新晋珠宝设计师专区，为年轻设计师提供展示才华的平台。「第七届国际珠宝设计大奖」一众得奖者与嘉宾合照。「第二十六届香港珠宝设计比赛」一众得奖者与嘉宾合照。图片下载︰https://bit.ly/3QI66F3展会资料：香港国际珠宝展展览日期开放时间2025年3月4日（星期二）上午10时30分至下午6时30分2025年3月5日至7日（星期三至五）上午10时至下午6时30分2025年3月8日（星期六）上午10时至下午5时30分展览地点湾仔博览道1号香港会议展览中心记者登记处及新闻中心新闻界代表请携同名片及记者证到香港会议展览中心展览厅1D大堂，或到香港贸发局新闻中心（香港会议展览中心博览道入口──新翼地下）登记**香港国际钻石、宝石及珍珠展展览日期开放时间2025年3月2 (星期日)上午10时30分至下午6时30分2025年3月3至5日 (星期一至三)上午10时至下午6时30分2025年3月6日 (星期四)上午10时至下午5时30分展览地点香港大屿山香港国际机场亚洲国际博览馆记者登记处及新闻中心新闻界代表请携同名片及记者证到亚洲国际博览馆东大堂入口（3号展馆对面电梯旁），或到新闻中心（2楼201C会议室）登记****基于保安理由，记者须出示工作证及身份证或护照登记，方能办理记者证，持大会发出记者证入场前，保安人员亦会要求出示身份证明文件，以确认身份。请预留足够时间办理记者证及入场。相关网页 香港国际珠宝展香港国际钻石、宝石及珍珠展展览网页http://hkjewelleryshow.hktdc.com/schttp://hkdgp.hktdc.com/sc精选产品https://bit.ly/4hE1ifz两展穿梭巴士安排https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/sc/travel-to-fairground-hkcechttps://www.hktdc.com/event/hkdgp/sc/travel-to-fairground-awe展会活动https://www.hktdc.com/event/hkjewellery/sc/intelligence-hubhttps://www.hktdc.com/event/hkdgp/sc/intelligence-hub香港贸发局新闻中心：http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/sc传媒查询香港贸易发展局传讯及公共事务部：夏妙婷电话：(852) 2584 4575电邮：sharon.mt.ha@hktdc.org张希汶电话：(852) 2584 4272电邮：serena.hm.cheung@hktdc.org刘茸电话：(852) 2584 4472电邮：clayton.y.lawuw@hktdc.org香港贸易发展局简介香港贸易发展局(香港贸发局)是于1966年成立的法定机构，负责促进、协助和发展香港贸易。香港贸发局在世界各地设有超过50个办事处，其中13个设于中国内地，致力推广本港作为双向环球投资及商业枢纽。 香港贸发局通过举办国际展览会、会议及商贸考察团，为企业(尤其是中小企)开拓内地和环球市场的机遇。香港贸发局亦通过研究报告和数码资讯平台，提供最新的市场分析和产品资讯。有关香港贸发局的其他资讯，请浏览www.hktdc.com/aboutus/tc。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.
