The Islahane Cultural Hub will host the solo exhibition of Finnish artist and jewelry designer Laura Saarivuori-Eskola, titled "25 Years by Hand", from June 2 to June 12, 2026.
As part of the exhibition, a "Meet the Artist" event will take place on Wednesday, June 3, 2026, where the public will have the opportunity to meet the creator in person and discuss with her the techniques, materials, and concepts that run through her work.
Laura Saarivuori-Eskola's presence in Thessaloniki represents a significant opportunity for cultural exchange between Finland and Greece, fostering dialogue around contemporary craft, sustainable design, and modern artistic practices.
The exhibition brings together works from the artist's twenty-five-year creative journey and includes unique jewelry and small art objects made from repurposed metal items, old coins, silver spoons, and cutlery.
The public will have the opportunity to see a special collection of bracelets, rings, brooches, earrings, and sculptural necklaces, as well as small silver boxes and artistic objects, through which Saarivuori-Eskola explores the relationship between memory, craftsmanship, sustainability, and contemporary aesthetics. In her works, she transforms everyday objects into narrative pieces of contemporary design, highlighting the value of reuse and materiality.
Among the works in the exhibition are series such as "Penny Jewelry", made from Finnish coins, the necklaces "Chain of Silver Marks" and "Vaskesta palaset veistetty", as well as small silver boxes made from repurposed cutlery.
Laura Saarivuori-Eskola lives and works in Tampere, Finland. Since 2006, she has been active as a jewelry designer through her personal practice EKORU, while also serving as Exhibition Manager for Tampere Architecture and Design Week and being an active member of the Finnish design and cultural scene.
Her artistic practice operates at the intersection of nature, sustainability, and traditional Finnish jewelry techniques. Through reclaimed and responsibly sourced materials, she creates works that speak of renewal, transformation, and our relationship with consumption and beauty.

Jewelry is not simply "adornments" that enhance our appearance. They are symbols of strength, identity, and in some cases, small works of art. The art of jewelry creation is one that the house of Cartier has perfected: a house that has written its own chapter in the history of fashion. Now, it writes a new one in the history of arts, with the exhibition Cartier & Myths.
At the Palazzo Nuovo in the Musei Capitolini in Rome, the exhibition Cartier & Myths, the 45th exhibition of the jewelry house and the first to be hosted within a museum's permanent collection, is taking place. From November 14, 2025, to March 15, 2026, the public has the opportunity to explore Cartier's deep connection with Italy, and specifically with Rome, in the world's oldest cultural collection. This is an endeavor that connects the contemporary craftsmanship of the house of Cartier with the iconography of the ancient world.

The house, founded in 1847, draws inspiration from divine form, harmony, symmetry, and light. Through rare exhibits, tiaras and works from the Albani collection, the exhibition Cartier & Myths reveals how mythical forms of the past live on through the contemporary art of jewelry.

What makes the experience even more complete is the participation of the house's perfumer, Mathilde Laurent. The exhibition includes aromatic installations that "translate" the essence of myth into scent. In a space where Rome, the art of jewelry, and luxury coexist harmoniously, the house reminds us that each of its creations is much more than a piece of jewelry—it is a piece of history and art that lives and breathes.
