About Us

Founded in 1939, Newel is a premier destination for collectors, interior designers, and art enthusiasts seeking exceptional antiques, contemporary art, and luxury decor. Originally established to furnish New York City’s iconic Broadway productions, Newel has evolved under the leadership of Jake Baer, fourth-generation CEO, and his father, Lewis Baer, into a trusted resource for quality, sustainability, and timeless style. With locations in Manhattan, Long Island City, and South Florida, Newel expanded further in 2023 by acquiring Gary Rubinstein Antiques and Modern Design Inventory and his gallery space in Hollywood, Florida.
