You probably know the exciting feeling when you see or experience something special, when the heart bounces with excitement and the joy inside spreads. This is what I wanted the most in my life and that's how this shop was born. The cornerstone was a study of literature and art history as well as cultural communication. Curiosity, a thirst for knowledge and a lot of collaboration with incredible personalities from the world of art and design, that's how I got to where I am today. Through antiquities, history becomes tangible in the literal sense, one can perceive it sensually. They calmly challenge the constant change of fashions and the taste of 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 the riddles, lock themselves in; others reveal their past frankly. They radiate joie de vivre, amaze or enchant us; Make a collector's heart beat faster or become good friends and a meaningful place in your life. They can be bulky or controversial, but they are never boring.

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

Every room in my shop has been carefully and personally chosen. What unites them is their know-how, their care and their attention to detail.
