Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the Joya Jewelry Fair, returning for the second consecutive year to explore the event that has quickly become a highlight in the principality’s cultural calendar. Hosted at the elegant One Monte-Carlo, the fair welcomed visitors to a world of exquisite jewelry, featuring a blend of archaeological, vintage, antique, and contemporary pieces.
Princess Charlene was warmly greeted by the event’s organizers, Delphine Pastor-Reiss and Vanessa Margowski, who accompanied her throughout the fair. Radiant in a sophisticated black-and-white trouser suit, the princess spent nearly two hours moving through the exhibition spaces, pausing to admire the intricate craftsmanship and engaging personally with the designers.
Among the 15 carefully selected exhibitors, Princess Charlene showed particular interest in Elie Top, returning for the second year, as well as Eliane Fattal, Griegst, and Alix Dumas. “Princess Charlene spoke with each exhibitor, asked thoughtful questions, and showed genuine curiosity and enthusiasm for their work,” said Delphine Pastor-Reiss. “Her presence was both inspiring and encouraging for everyone involved.”
The Joya Jewelry Fair, held under the High Patronage of Prince Albert, offers visitors a unique experience in which tradition meets innovation. From ancient and archaeological jewelry to contemporary creations, the fair showcases a wide spectrum of artistic expression, making it an enchanting destination for collectors, enthusiasts, and art lovers alike.
Although relatively new to Monaco’s cultural scene, Joya is rapidly establishing itself as a premier event for international galleries specializing in both historical and modern jewelry. By bringing together diverse creators and artisans from across the globe, the fair provides a rare opportunity to discover pieces that blend history, artistry, and contemporary design.
“The princess’s visit was a true honor,” added Delphine Pastor-Reiss. “We were touched by the sincere interest she showed in every exhibitor’s work and by her enthusiasm for Joya as a whole. Her presence highlighted the fair’s growing importance and its potential to become a key event in Monaco’s cultural calendar.”
Princess Charlene’s visit underscores her continued commitment to supporting the arts and highlights the principality’s role as a hub for international cultural events. The Joya Jewelry Fair will remain open until November 16, 2025, welcoming both locals and visitors to experience its curated selection of remarkable jewelry.
