Result Announcement
We would like to thank all entrants, all supporters, teachers from jewelry schools, local government, communities in Ise Shima, Embassy of Japan and all visitors for our exhibitions. Thank you so much for your cooperation. We are greatly honored to have our event successfully and could announced awarded creations in the last day of exhibition in Embassy of Japan, Japan Creative Center in Singapore.
Due to the global warming and the decline of number of local farmers, the Akoya pearl production has been decreasing rapidly and 80% of Akoya Oysters died because of the temperature change. And many people don’t know how to differentiate pearls or real value of pearls. Through this competition, we wish to share the beauty of akoya pearls and more people know about pearls and appreciate them more.
Due to COVID 19, we started 1 month late, from 10th July 2020 and had exhibition and voting in Ise Shima and also had on line voting until the end of October. After that, all creations were exhibited in Singapore from 3rd to 19th December. The total number of vote for 6 months including online voting is 1669. Out of this, the number of vote in Singapore is 200.
We were happy and excited to announce awarded creations by live streaming of Japan Creative Center Singapore. https://fb.watch/2I3gF07Jb3/
