Maria Teresa Cannizzaro, in collaboration with dr.ssa Fiorella Operto.

Thanks to the expertise of its members, this exhibition aims to provide a thorough knowledge of Kenneth Jay Lane, through a journey through some of its most iconic creations, brooches, necklaces, rings and earrings of extraordinary beauty and shine, from the most diverse colors and subjects , from exotic animals to a thousand shades of flowers.
