Participants of the Osmium Visionary Contest had a unique opportunity to contribute to the evolution of Osmium in the jewelry industry, a material known for its rarity, density, and remarkable sparkle.

Participating in the contest offered much more than the chance to win incredible prizes. Designers received the opportunity to showcase their jewelry on a global stage, with their creations traveling to prestigious exhibitions across South and North America, Europe, the UAE and Middle East, and Asia. These exhibitions provide invaluable exposure, as each piece might be prominently advertised and displayed to international audiences.

Additionally, some participants and all winners are receiving extensive social media coverage from both the Osmium Institute and Katerina Perez, further amplifying their visibility.
