From October 24th to 26th, 2025, at the gracious invitation of Ms. Monica Cecchini, President of the Roma Jewelry Week organizing committee, a collective of Chinese enterprises, brands, and design studios that had previously participated in the Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala (东方意象时尚盛典（中国）) made their debut at Roma Jewelry Week.
They brought their masterfully crafted signature works to the international stage, dazzling with unique Eastern aesthetics and exquisite craftsmanship, and winning high praise from the global industry and audience.
An Opportunity Emerged from Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala: A Deep Dialogue Between Chinese and Western Jewelry Cultures
The invitation for Chinese enterprises to participate in this exhibition originated from the 2nd Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala, which was successfully held in Shenzhen in 2024.
The Gala, themed “The Splendor of National Charm,” attracted many distinguished international guests from the jewelry world, including Monica Cecchini, founder, president, and art gallery director of Roma Jewelry Week; Barbara Brocchi, head of the IED Jewelry Design Department; and Miss Gio, an internationally renowned high jewelry opinion leader and blogger. During the event, through her in-depth understanding of the participating companies and their designers’ works, Monica gained a new appreciation for the innovation and cultural depth of China’s gold and jewelry industry. She praised the Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala as “a platform for East-West jewelry exchange with profound cultural depth and international influence” and immediately extended an invitation to the Gala’s organizing committee for outstanding Chinese companies to bring their works to the 2025 Roma Jewelry Week, to showcase China’s original creative power and Eastern aesthetics in the international jewelry art exhibition area.
Furthermore, Mr. Cao Yang, Chairman of the Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala, was also invited to attend Roma Jewelry Week and engaged in in-depth communication and exchange with the event organizers. The two sides held fruitful discussions on topics such as cultural exchange in jewelry between China and Italy and future artistic co-creation, laying a solid foundation for promoting continuous dialogue between Eastern and Western jewelry art.
Ms. Xiong Bing Speaks on Stage Three Times
Ms. Xiong Bing (Sally Xiong), Chief Planner and Project Executive Director of the Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala, was formally invited by Monica Cecchini to be the sole international judge from the Asia-Pacific region for the 2025 Roma Jewelry Week Global Design Competition. During Rome Jewelry Week, she represented the Asia-Pacific region with her professional perspective, providing expert evaluation opinions with both international stature and an Eastern viewpoint for global jewelry designers. At the same time, Ms. Xiong Bing spoke on stage three times, infusing a distinct “Chinese perspective” into the event:
At the opening ceremony, she explained the original intention and significance of the Chinese enterprises’ participation to the international guests, allowing the world to more deeply perceive the unique value and artistic charm of Eastern jewelry culture.
At the awards ceremony, she presented an award to a winner from Mexico and shared the significance of cross-cultural jewelry exchange through the example of “Chinese design going global,” proposing the concept that “jewelry culture has no borders, and creativity connects the world.”
In her keynote speech, she comprehensively elaborated on the cultural mission and global significance of the Eastern YiXiang China Fashion Gala, introduced the current international standing of Chinese jewelry products, and highlighted the formation process and future plans for the “Global 100 Designers Platform,” receiving enthusiastic applause from the audience.
Ms. Xiong Bing’s speeches not only demonstrated the professional excellence and cultural confidence of China’s jewelry industry but also built a solid bridge for continuous exchange between Eastern and Western jewelry cultures, leaving a deep impression on the attendees.
