Heritage Week–Hong Kong, scheduled for Dec. 3-10, 2018, includes special previews, collections and auctions featuring world coins, currency, fine jewelry, luxury accessories, rare timepieces and wine.
Hong Kong’s high-end handbag followers will experience the lavish colors and limited-edition styles of Hermès, Channel and Louis Vuitton. “Hong Kong’s fashion-conscious collectors and bidders will see the best in vintage and contemporary examples from only the top design houses,” says Diane D’Amato, director of luxury accessories at Heritage. “Our debut is centered on a selection of truly rare and truly extraordinary discoveries.”
“Heritage is pleased to introduce beautiful and exciting jewelry to the Hong Kong market,” adds Jill Burgum, director of fine jewelry at Heritage Auctions. “We have carefully crafted our inaugural boutique auction to reflect the festive color and cheer of the Holiday Season.”
