Bangkok, March 2026 — The Gem and Jewelry Institute of Thailand (Public Organization) or GIT has officially opened submissions for the 20th edition of its World Jewelry Design Awards, themed “Golden Twenty: A Journey of Brilliance & Artistry,” open until May 31, 2026. This milestone marks two decades of redefining jewelry not as mere ornamentation, but as a critical “language of beauty”—a tool for designers to turn personal identity and emotion into physical objects of value. By synthesizing twenty years of artistic heritage with modern technology, GIT invites international creators to address this year’s essential question—not just what you will design, but what beauty you choose to convey—through a journey that integrates gemstones, artistic expression, and technical innovation. By following the submission details attached, this initiative unifies diverse creative talents into a collective industry strength, establishing a regional standard where the artistic story of a piece directly enhances its global value.
