Nigel O'Reilly at NYC Jewelry Week
Nigel O’Reilly will celebrate the publication of his first book, ‘Evolution of a Goldsmith’, at this year’s NYC Jewelry Week 2024. The launch marks a significant milestone in the Irish jeweller’s already illustrious career. Recounting his journey from dyslexic schoolboy to celebrated master goldsmith, paying tribute along the way to the mentors, family and friends who have helped make his unlikely dream a reality, Evolution of a Goldsmith is a stunningly illustrated, evocatively written portrait of a grounded but gifted creative. The book's foreword is written by goldsmith Shaun Leane and its introduction by journalist and author Dana Thomas
Commemorating some of Nigel’s most spectacular pieces, this lavish publication is a true collector’s item for jewellery lovers, design aficionados and aesthetes everywhere.
As part of NYCJW 2024, keynote speaker, author, and fashion journalist Dana Thomas will host an intimate fireside chat with O’Reilly on the evening of November 21. Here, he will guide guests through his collection of heirloom jewellery, illuminating the inspirations, motivations and challenges of designing and crafting world-class wearable art
Whilst this is a private event, bookings can be made through RSVP to rsvp@nycjewelryweek.com
