With just over 6,000-square-feet of space and 130 feet of frontage, the location increases visibility tenfold in an area that is an art and antiques hub. In addition to more than tripling the ground floor exhibition area, the new location will also feature a dedicated library for the gallery’s extensive collection of books and other industry resources, as well as an expanded showroom that doubles as an event and lecture space. The gallery is recognized for museum-quality Art Nouveau furni- ture and decorative arts, including the lamps and glassware of Louis Comfort Tiffany, and carefully curated Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and Mid-20th-century jewelry. Gallery president, Benjamin Macklowe, notes that the larger space will provide the opportunity to further their product offerings into later periods. “We are very excited to be expanding. It’s rare that a family busi- ness continues through to the next generation and it’s exciting for me to be able to share my passion and knowledge,” says Macklowe. “I’m very optimistic about the future of our industry. Beautiful things are uplifting and we all need that.” He adds, “With our new gallery’s increased presence, we will have the opportunity to make people aware of this beautiful material. Our business was built on people who were curious and were interested in learning about what they saw in our shop window. We now will have an even greater influx of curious onlookers who can see what’s so special inside.” HIGHLIGHTS Winter 22 www.afamag.com | www.incollect.com “Rose de France” vase by Emile Gallè, ca. 1900.
