Vicenza gold district
Vicenza, Italy

The Vicenza district, stretching from Vicenza to Trissino and Bassano del Grappa in the Veneto, is Italy's largest gold jewellery production area. Its goldsmiths' guild dates back to the Middle Ages, and today hundreds of companies make gold jewellery and chain here.
What you find
Gold jewellery and chain manufacturers, from industrial producers to artisan workshops, machinery makers, refiners and suppliers. Vicenza hosts the Vicenzaoro fairs, among the most important jewellery trade shows in Europe, and the Museo del Gioiello, a jewellery museum in the Basilica Palladiana.
How it works
Manufacturers sell to the trade worldwide, much of it through the fairs in January and September. Pieces made here carry the provincial code VI in their Italian maker's mark.
