11 pieces to see at the antique jewelry show
The Las Vegas Antique Jewelry & Watch Show begins Thursday, May 28 and runs through Sunday, May 31 at the Paris hotel. It is open only to the trade.
This Art Deco-era platinum sapphire and diamond cuff bracelet is just one of the pieces dealers will have on display at the upcoming trade-only antique jewelry show in Las Vegas. It’s available at the booth of exhibitor J.S. Fearnley.
New York--The antique and estate portion of the jewelry business has the same dilemma as the rest of the industry--a lack of young talent. The average age of a consumer or trade show buyer of antiques is 55, says U.S. Antique Shows.
That’s why the organization is, like other industry players including the MJSA and the International Colored Gemstone Association (ICA), launching a program designed to draw youth.
Called Antiques Young Guns U.S.A., the program gives people 39 and younger who are interested in working in antiques of any kind access to mentorship, exposure through the online Antique Young Guns marketplace, buying and selling events throughout the year and recognition in various publications, as well as the chance to connect with antique dealers in the United States and overseas.
There’s also a prize pack worth $10,000 for the dealer named the Antiques Young Gun of the Year.
U.S. Antiques Show announced its Young Guns program in April, a little more than a month ahead of the trade-only Las Vegas Antique Jewelry & Watch show.
This year, the show begins Thursday, May 28 and runs through Sunday, May 31 at the Paris hotel. It is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day except Sunday, when it closes at 4.
Pre-registration is $30 and on-site registration is $50.
This Art Deco platinum, sapphire and diamond cuff bracelet is available at J.S. Fearnley.
