First opened in 2014, the Vicenza Jewellery Museum is extraordinary and unique. Not only because it is located in the grandiose halls of the Palladian Basilica of Vicenza, enhanced by the design of the Spanish designer with studio in Milan, Patricia Urquiola, but also because it is the first museum dedicated entirely to the art of goldsmithing in Italy and one of the few in the world.
At a cost of one million euros and in collaboration with the Vicenza Fair and the Vicenza Town Hall, this museum occupies an area of 410 square metres within the Palladian Basilica and meets the needs of a territory that has always invested in the production of goldwork and has become the centre of world importance in this field.
To enhance the beauty of the jewellery on display in its galleries, the following Flos luminaires were used: Buschfeld Lightlight, Compass Box, Pure Spot, Tatou, Led Squad Spot and Tight Light.
