dmg world media announced the third annual New York Antique Jewelry & Watch Show enjoyed strong sales and steady crowds. The show was held at The Metropolitan Pavilion July 24-27, 2009.

The New York Antique Jewelry & Watch Show, which opened two days before the JA New York Summer Show, brought together more than 100 of the finest antique jewelry dealers from North America, Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

“We're delighted that collectors and dealers alike attended this year's New York Antique Jewelry & Watch Show to purchase many of the exquisite antique necklaces, cameos, tennis bracelets, diamond rings and other rare antique jewelry available,” said Andrea Canady, fair director for dmg world media. "We're proud of the success of this show and are confident that our newest launch, The Washington DC Antiques, Art & Jewelry Show, will be just as successful.”

Exhibitors at the show had favorable reports with regard to attendance and sales.

"The show was superb! We were able to cultivate strong contacts and big ticket sales," said Steven Fearnley, owner of J.S. Fearnley in Atlanta. "Our sales highlights from the show included a 7 ¼ carat emerald and diamond Edwardian ring and 8 carat diamond studs."

"This year's New York Antique Jewelry & Watch Show was excellent! We sold a diamond Cartier rose from the 1950's," said Olivia Garary, owner of Olivia Garary Vintage Jewelry in New York City. "The show's staff is always very helpful, provide the best treatment and service. We look forward to participating in next year's show."

The show was a hit with the media as well. A live interview on the New York Nightly News with Chuck Scarbrough and nearly 20 representatives from national, regional and trade publications within the New York metro area attended the show.

The 2010 New York Antique Jewelry & Watch Show is scheduled for July 23-26, 2010, at The Metropolitan Pavilion. The next show on the U.S. calendar for dmg is the Washington DC Antiques, Art & Jewelry Show held October 15-18, 2009, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.
