I love beautiful things, and it is my greatest pleasure to find them, to draw them into their stories, to spend time with them and then to release them again. Add to this a passionate interest in exceptional and high-quality objects. You surely know the exciting feeling that comes from seeing or experiencing something special, when the heart races with excitement and inner joy spreads. This is what I wanted most in my life, and this is how this shop was born. The first stone was a study of literature and art history as well as cultural communication. Curiosity, a thirst for knowledge, and many collaborations with amazing personalities from the art and design world are how I arrived where I am today.

Through antiques, history becomes tangible in a literal sense, it can be perceived sensually. They serenely challenge the constant change of fashions and the taste of the time. They are like a bridge between the past and the present. For me personally, they are an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Some objects abandon enigmas, locking themselves away; others reveal their past very frankly.

They radiate joy of life, amaze or enchant us; they make a collector's heart beat faster or become good friends and occupy a significant place in your life. They can be bulky or controversial, but they are never boring.

I believe that the stories, the hands, and the tradition behind objects are just as important as their aesthetic qualities. Antique objects can add so much value to your life, and personally, I cannot imagine a home without them.

Every piece in my shop has been carefully and personally chosen. What unites them is their craftsmanship, care, and attention to detail.

Curiosity, a thirst for knowledge, and many collaborations with amazing personalities from the art and design world are the.
