RAPAPORT... Bonhams has promoted Leslie Roskind to lead its Hong Kong jewelry department, it said Monday.
Roskind, who has been with Bonhams since April 2019, will oversee the procuring and selling of jewelry in the municipality, and will also liaise with the auction house’s global jewelry team on various projects.
“With her international expertise…we look forward to advancing our sourcing and business strategies in Asia,” said Edward Wilkinson, the company’s executive director for Asia.
An industry veteran with over 25 years of auction, retail and wholesale experience, Roskind was previously the company’s senior specialist of jewelry for New York.

Roskind will begin her new position on October 12.
