Jewelry Show News and Information
Created by Designers, for Designers
Founded in 2017 by jewelry designers and longtime friends Lauren Wolf and Rebecca Overmann, MELEE THE SHOW was born from a shared vision: to create a jewelry show experience as refined and inspiring as the jewelry itself. Recognizing a gap in the industry, they set out to create a space where fine jewelry could truly shine — one that offered the thoughtful, high-touch environment both designers and buyers had long been seeking.
A Curated Experience in Fine Jewelry Design
MELEE THE SHOW is a boutique jewelry show that brings together an upscale, international roster of fine jewelry designers in beautiful, intimate settings. Known for its highly curated selection and refined atmosphere, MELEE offers a personal and elevated jewelry show experience in New York City, Paris, and Tucson.
MELEE THE SHOW - New York is hosted at The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers, a premier waterfront venue located at Pier 61 in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Designed to evoke the ambiance of a chic Manhattan loft, it features a glass-enclosed terrace offering sweeping views of the Hudson River and the Statue of Liberty. The venue also offers convenient amenities, including valet parking, shuttle bus services, and complimentary Wi-Fi. It’s the perfect destination for discerning buyers who appreciate the art of acquiring high-end jewelry in a setting as stunning and luxurious as the pieces themselves.
