It is open to both the trade and the public, showcasing antique jewelry and watch collections from all eras of jewelry history, from the Renaissance to Modern. Collections from brands including Cartier, Tiffany & Co., David Webb, Harry Winston, Patek Philippe and Van Cleef & Arpels will be at the show.

It annually attracts serious local buyers within the community as well as international and national collectors and enthusiasts. This show sees a dramatic increase in attendance year after year,” says Dan Darby, Emerald Expositions vice president and U.S. Antique Shows group.
This year’s New York antique show opens two days before another industry event in New York City -- the trade-only JA New York Summer show, which is scheduled for July 27 to 29 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.
