The Minerale Hamburg-Schnelsen counts among the world’s largest trade fairs for minerals. Gemstones, jewellery and fossils will be on display.

A World of Gemstones and Minerals

On three consecutive days, around 400 international exhibitors will present unique high-end jewellery, extraordinary gemstone designs, fossils and equipment. In addition, young visitors get the chance to step into the shoes of a professional jeweller and process some of these beautiful stones themselves. The special exhibitions draw collectors from near and far. Some of the most awe-inspiring gemstones the world has to offer can be marvelled at to the tune of classical music. 

Science for Kids

Producing fossils, cutting amber, panning for gold and cracking geodes: minerals can be fun and games for young ones, too. 

Diamonds 

The rare jewels stem from East Africa, India or Brazil, among other places. Only raw diamonds adhering to the regulations of the Kimberley Process are imported. 

Date:
