Melting Point will be held on 27, 28, 29 and 30 April in Ciutat Vella de València, turning the old quarter of the city into a hotbed of exhibitions, conferences and activities related to Contemporary Jewellery, with the participation of jewellers of recognised prestige and both national and international students.

The Schmuck 2023 exhibition, which shows a selection of works by both young goldsmiths in training and established jewellery designers, is particularly noteworthy. Each year, a prestigious jewellery artist exhaustively chooses the pieces to be shown in each edition. The collection on display this year has been chosen by Caroline Broadhead - London jewellery artist, winner of the Herbert Hofmann Award 2022 and long-time head of the Jewellery Department at Central Saint Martins College, London, now Professor Emeritus. Schmuck 2023 features work by 66 jewellers from 22 countries. This year's "Classics of Modernity" section pays tribute to the recently deceased Italian jeweller Annamaria Zanella (1966-2022). This exhibition can already be visited at the CCCC (Centre del Carme Cultura Contemporània).
