Item History & Price
We are a Greek/English family-run business established in the UK in 2011. Since then we have built up a large collection of unique items, hand-picked from private collectors sales.
Our choice of items is based on quality, craftsmanship, cultural interest and beauty. We research every single item and aim to provide as much information as possible about its history and provenance.
Recently we relocated our business to Greece for a better qua...lity of life; in time we hope to add local treasure to our eclectic chest.
We speak English perfectly, as well as understanding Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and French, so please do communicate without fear for any questions you may have. We are here to help and provide any information you need at all times.
We have been packing and sending items abroad for many years and have successfully delivered even the most fragile pieces including Venetian mirrors, carved chairs and arabesque tables.
Customer satisfaction is assured; please do take the time to look at the excellent feedback we have received over the years.
Please note that there are no added taxes on our products shipping from Greece to the UK or other EU countries. And that the Greek Postal Service is most reliable!
We hope you enjoy browsing our stock and feel reassured that you can buy with confidence:-)
