The duality and texture of storytelling through and with jewellery is sometimes a transitional state that is not fully understood, nor needs to be in many cases.
Materiality is changed with imbued meaning that creates a new way in seeing the jewel and how it wishes to speak to us.
Perhaps the things unsaid need their moment, their voice, to extend into a visible language that alludes to what may have been, if spoken and heard.
/ Mark Mcleish


Precious.Collective and Pistachios Gallery have been collaborating since July 2024 to present a new exciting show opening on the 14th of August 2025.
This is the first time Precious will be featured in the United States; 34 members were selected and have created totally new work specifically for the show.


After 3 months in Downtown Chicago the exhibition will take a little rest before once more emerging at Munich Jewellery Week in March 2026 where other selected members of the jewellery collective will also get the chance to show their responses to the theme ‘Things Unsaid’.

On Thursday, August 14, 2025 from 4:00pm to 7:00pm Pistachios will be hosting a reception to celebrate the exhibition with Lynne Speake, Founder and Creative Director of Precious Collective in attendance.

Precious Collective was created in 2017 and is an international community of over 650 makers bound together by their ambiguous definitions of what exactly ‘precious’ is in relation to jewellery.
