Antiques, vintage objects and furniture evaluation
It’s not so easy to evaluate an object or a piece of furniture: you probably inherited an antique piece, or you’re just decluttering your grandpa’s basement and you may have found something valuable, but you can’t tell for sure.
Would you like to evaluate it but don’t know who to ask?
(Jean-Paul Sartre)
Our clients’ trust is our most important value: it allow us to keep our business alive and we know that very well. So, we don’t take antiques evaluation lightly: an antique item has very specific requirements, such as historical era, style and versatility. We love to buy antique pieces and transform them, giving them an all new purpose.
From a commode to a TV cabinet, from a merchant chest to a coffee table...the only limit is good taste!
