HOLIDAY 2023

Established in 1940 and spanning three generations of family ownership, Kentshire Galleries is one of the foremost dealers of fine period and estate jewelry. In 1988, Kentshire established a free-standing boutique in New York’s premier luxury store, Bergdorf Goodman. Their antique and estate jewelry department continues to occupy a select location on the store’s seventh floor, directly to the right of BG Restaurant. Carrie Imberman and her brother, Matthew, joined the firm in 2004. As the third generation of the family to lead Kentshire, they continue to refine the gallery’s founding vision: buying and selling outstanding jewelry and objects of enduring design and elegance.
