Five ways into the world of old objects

antique lighting

Antique lighting & Art Deco lamps

From a single reading lamp to a group of hotel pendants, compare proportions, fittings and condition before choosing a light.

vintage tableware

Vintage tableware & French dining

Build a considered table with antique plates, silverplate flatware and old glassware. Start with the service you need and the condition you can document.

antique paintings

Antique paintings & vintage art

Choose paintings through subject, scale and condition, then build a documented plan for attribution and hanging.

antique French clocks

Antique French clocks & Comtoise parts

Separate decorative appeal from mechanical condition. Prepare an inventory before choosing a pendule, movement or replacement bell.
