Asia Week New York Dealers Carry On Amid Springtime Blizzard

March 21, 2018

For the second consecutive year, a snowstorm has befallen New York City during Asia Week New York—and once again, our fearless dealers opened their doors despite the inclement weather. Here are a few photos they've shared throughout the day!

 

It’s just a bit of snow in Spring! We’re open and ready to welcome you at 24 East 64th Street @asiaweekny. #keepcalm #snow #nosnowday #showinthesnow #asiaweekny #asiaweek #bronzes #porcelain #worksofart #imperial #china #littletonandhennessy #asianart #chineseart #art #antiques #contemporaryart #parkseobo #leeufan #imperial #porcelain #gilt #instalike #artoninstagram #newyork #london

BachmannEckenstein | JapaneseArt even decided to offer discounts today—1% off for every inch of snow! And lucky for you, they will be open an additional day tomorrow as their flight back to Switzerland has been delayed.
 

 

We are open today, but due to the worsening weather we have decided to cancel our sword handling session which was due to take place this evening (Wednesday 21st March) @tambarangallery 5 E 82nd St. You can still visit the gallery today, all day Thursday and Friday but sadly the itinerary doesn’t allow a rescheduling for another session, so feel free to pick my brains if you visit, and i’ll show you how to correctly and elegantly handle a sword! #swordetiquette #asiaweekny #armsandarmor #armsandarmour #snowday #asianart #indianart #islamicart #runjeetsingh

Lastly, to make sure Scholten Japanese Art remains open, director Katherine Martin is camping out at the gallery during the storm, surrounded by handsome kabuki actors.
