Mark Schneider Retrospective at Lizzadro Museum

The Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art will host a retrospective of award-winning jewelry designer Mark Schneider from November 7, 2026, to March 28, 2027. The exhibition, guest curated by Elyse Zorn Karlin, will showcase Schneider's one-of-a-kind pieces. Schneider, who has won 68 prestigious jewelry industry awards, began his career in his family's retail jewelry business before pivoting to design in 1981. His unique approach starts with the gemstone, which he sources through a network of dealers and carvers, allowing the stone to inspire the final design. The exhibition highlights his innovative methodology and significant contributions to contemporary jewelry design.
