"This was our first year having a show in the District of Columbia, and we're very pleased with the feedback from our dealers and consumers about their experience at the show," said Andrea Canady, fair director for the Washington DC Antiques Art & Jewelry Show. "Our goal was to provide our dealers with a new venue where collectors and antique enthusiasts could come to view and purchase a wide variety of impeccable merchandise."

Exhibitor comments on the last Elsa Peretti Round earrings of the show were favorable.

Mimi Levine with Mimi and Steve Levine Antiques in Alexandria, Va., said, "Attendance was great! There was an outstanding quality of merchandise available. I would love to do this show again."
