About this Event
Have you ever found yourself curious about a piece of jewellery you’ve inherited? Wondering if it’s genuine silver or gold? Is that gleaming gem a real stone or just cut glass? Do you think your vintage treasure might hold some monetary value? And what stories could it tell from the time it was made?
Join us for an exciting event where you can bring your cherished jewellery pieces for a thorough cleaning and assessment by a talented panel of expert jewellers! This is your chance to share the fascinating history behind your items and hopefully learn about the materials and techniques that were used to create them.
In a lively "Antiques Road Show" style atmosphere, you'll witness experts discussing and evaluating your treasures while you sit back and soak in the knowledge. Hear about the hidden gems tucked away in the jewelry boxes of Calgary - it’s bound to spark your curiosity!
You can bring your pieces for identification, with a small donation of $10 for each item. Remember, this is all in good fun! While no official appraisals will be provided, we will guide you on how to obtain those services and connect you with jewellers who specialize in redesigning vintage pieces.
Get ready to meet our wonderful lineup of participating jewellers: Nanz Allund, Charles Lewton-Brain, Linda Chow, Sarabeth Carnat, Milt Fischbein, Luke Wieser, Barb Temple, John Smith Jones, Breanne Avendar, and Jennea Frischke and others.
Come and discover the hidden treasures waiting for you!
We will be hosting the event at cSPACE - Marda Loop in the RGO Treehouse room on the 4th floor. While you wait for your moment in the spotlight, sit back and enjoy the symphony of stories as others share their creative adventures. Who knows, you might even pick up a few tips or some giggles along the way! It’s like a creativity waiting room—come for the experience, stay for the inspiration! 🎉✨
