A bit of history

The term antiques does not only indicate the antiquity of an object but identifies its historical value, antiques are evidence of the styles and tastes of the past.

As we know fashions are cyclical, what was liked will still be liked, a quality piece of furniture will never lose its value, if the stylistic choices are adequate it will have a timeless style that can always be appreciated.

Classical culture and architecture first and then Hellenistic still influence the style of architecture of furnishings and buildings in particular today and have been a fundamental point of reference in the past.
The production of furniture and objects prior to the third industrial revolution is characterized by artisanal construction methods and a classic style.

Although the forms of expression are many and vary according to the geographical area and the period, floral decorations and references to architecture with columns and capitals are the basis of the common taste of the 19th century.
