Archive of sold antiquities
All artefacts sold in our gallery are fully documented in our online archive and database. Being a specialist ancient art dealer, preserving also the more recent history of each and every piece sold in our shop is at our heart. That is particularly useful for artefacts that changed owners in the meantime. Information that may have been lost in the process can be easily restored from our archives.

We can help you with reconstructing the history of ownership for those items. All information about our customers will be kept confidential, of course.-
