Kentshire, Rosior, M.S. Rau Among Jewelry Dealers Set for San Francisco Fall Show

By Karen Dybis | October 12, 2026

With its Métallique Chic theme, the 2026 San Francisco Fall Show gives a hint at the jewelry looks that vintage, estate, and antique collectors will buy going into the holidays and beyond.

The 44th edition of the art, antique, and design show runs Thursday, Oct. 15, through Sunday, Oct. 18, at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture’s Festival Pavilion in San Francisco. This year’s theme is inspired by all things metal, including gold leaf, silver filigree, copper patina, and platinum polish, says show chair Suzanne Tucker.

“It’s a Bay Area must-do of the fall social season with four wonderful, vibrant days filled with terrific dealers, fascinating lectures, and gobs of eye candy,” Tucker says of the show, which was founded in 1982 and will feature about 40 dealers from around the world.

Jewelry dealers attending the show include Kentshire, the New York City–based gallery bringing big, chunky jewelry like its French retro rose gold mouse trap link bracelet circa 1945, and D.K. Farnum Estate Jewelry, bringing its array of 20th-century treasures.

Jewelry and watch brands scheduled to show include Rosior, the jewelry brand J. Manuel Rosas founded in 1978, which will display lots of yellow gold in its texture-heavy bangle bracelets; Tamsen Z, the fine gemstone jewelry brand from designer Ann Ziff; and Charles Oudin, which will bring its jeweled watches crafted at the Place Vendôme in Paris.

Another exhibitor is M.S. Rau, whose writer and researcher Emily Otranto says this year’s theme was ideal for bringing jewelry the New Orleans–based art, antique, and jewelry dealer considers among its best.

“We’re seeing strong interest in art deco and art nouveau, so I think collectors will be drawn to the Cartier art deco opal brooch and René Lalique’s Butterfly Woman brooch. They’re wonderful examples of how much imagination a jeweler can bring to the setting itself,” Otranto says.

M.S. Rau also is bringing an 8.45 carat Kashmir sapphire ring by Van Cleef & Arpels and Golconda diamond earrings totaling 16.21 carats. Alongside those are older treasures including a Victorian Colombian emerald bracelet and a Fabergé brooch.

“With Silicon Valley nearby and so much conversation about AI, I think there’s something particularly appealing about jewelry you can hold and examine, where you can see the care and skill of the person who made it. That connection is part of what makes these pieces so exciting to share,” Otranto says.

Tickets for the 2026 San Francisco Fall Show, including its legendary Opening Night gala, are available online. The honorary co-chairs of the Oct. 14 gala are Zac Posen, executive vice president and creative director of Gap Inc. and chief creative officer of Old Navy, and Stellene Volandes, editor-in-chief of Town & Country (which is celebrating its 180th anniversary) and editorial and brand director of Elle Decor.

Posen also is scheduled to do a lecture on Oct. 15 on “fashioning a life in style” with interior designer Ken Fulk and Volandes as the moderator.
