From 17 to 19 November 2025, as part of New York City Jewellery Week, Thomsen Gallery hosted the exhibition 'ReCrafted: The Upcycled Jewellery Story', where participating artists presented works reflecting on the theme of upcycling in contemporary jewellery.

Among the participants was Lena Esaulova (LENAGINARIUM), a nominee in the Designer of the Year category at the recently held NAJ Awards 2025. She presented seven works in the exhibition. Her necklace Beelzebub — featuring a cascade of garnets surrounding an antique bone inlaid in the traditional Shibayama technique — became one of the exhibition’s focal pieces.

During the private view, Bella Neyman, founder of NYCJW, delivered the opening remarks.

"ReCrafted presents upcycling not merely as an ecological necessity, but as a philosophy of jewellery design — one rooted in storytelling and respect for heritage. The exhibition invites visitors to discover how forward-thinking designers are redefining the future of luxury by turning discarded materials into wearable works of art. "
