Antiques, history becomes tangible in the literal sense, we can perceive sensually. Calmly, they defy the constant change of fashion and the button of the time. They are like a bridge between past and present. For me personally they are an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Some objects give up puzzles, feel very frankly, others reveal their past. They radiate with joy of life, astonish or enchant us; Make the heart of a collector beat faster or become good friends and a meaningful place in your life. They are bulky or controversial, but they are never boring.In my opinion, the stories, the hands and the tradition behind the objects are just as important as their aesthetics the qualities tic. Ancient objects can add so much value to your life, and I can not personally imagine a house without it every piece in my shop has been thoughtful and personally chosen. What unites them is their craftsmanship, care and thoroughness.
