New York—The American Society of Jewelry Historians has an event happening this week as part of New York City Jewelry Week that will excite jewelry and book lovers alike.

At the event, attendees will be able to browse and buy the rare jewelry and art books, and mingle with jewelry historians, collectors and other jewelry lovers.
