Winter Antiques Show

Carolle Thibaut-Pomerantz, the New York/Paris-based specialist in vintage and antique wallpapers, returns to the Winter Antiques Show this year in collaboration with another Paris dealership.

AT 63 years old (or young), the Winter Antiques Show fully lives up to its popular prefix as ‘venerable’. The fair, whose long-term beneficiary has been the East Side House Settlement in the Bronx, has been pulling the visitors into Manhattan in the first frosty weeks of the New Year for decades.

Robert Young is one of the leading UK dealers in folk art but each year, rather like taking coals to Newcastle, he exports this speciality across the Atlantic to the Winter Antiques Show where he has been an exhibitor since 2001. ATG asked why he has made a beeline for this fair over the last 17 years.

New York dealer SJ Shrubsole, which deals in early English and American silver and jewellery, has exhibited at the Winter Antiques Show every year since it was founded. The firm’s Tim Martin explains why this is an unmissable event.
