Why pink?, why not blue or green or black, peach, indigo or tangerine?
There are numerous reasons, opening up a riot of explorations into pink’s many connotations, cultural references and gender associations.

And yet, at the same time it is arbitrary. It is just a color. Nothing more or less.
It is a beginning.At first there was an open call, asking for submissions of jewellery that contained pink and could be suspended.
Entries were received from all parts of the world. A wealth of statements, concepts and styles with 365 pieces submitted from over 156 jewellers.
