Welcome to Our Services — Where Expertise Meets Passion

At the heart of our antique business lies a promise: to serve not just as sellers, but as stewards of history. Our services are designed to help collectors, institutions, and design professionals engage with antique pieces through expert consultation, care, and personal connection.

From museum-grade restoration to private sourcing and documentation, our team supports every phase of your antique journey — with discretion, scholarship, and precision.

Antique Appraisal Services — Know the True Value

Understanding the value of an antique is a delicate process that blends historical knowledge with market insight. As part of our services, we offer certified appraisal for:

• Orthodox icons

• Antique furniture and silver

• Rare books and documents

• Religious and decorative objects

All appraisals are conducted by accredited experts. You’ll receive a formal valuation certificate with detailed provenance analysis, historical context, and auction benchmarks. Whether you need an appraisal for insurance, estate, or resale — our documentation meets international standards.

Restoration and Conservation — Preserve What Matters

Preservation is not just a service — it’s a responsibility. Our restoration services are tailored for clients who wish to protect the authenticity and structural integrity of their antiques.

We specialize in:

• Icon restoration: Cleaning, pigment stabilization, re-gilding, and retouching using traditional tempera methods

• Furniture repair: Joinery correction, veneer replacement, woodworm treatment, and French polishing

• Silver and silver plate: Tarnish removal, hallmarks cleaning, solder repair, and museum-grade conservation

Each project includes a conservation report, materials used, and photo documentation before and after. We work with private owners, churches, auction houses, and embassies.

Antique Sourcing — Tailored Acquisitions for Collectors

Sometimes the most extraordinary pieces are not on display — they’re hidden in monasteries, estates, or private archives. That’s where our services come in.

We offer confidential sourcing for:

• Collectors looking for specific regions or periods

• Interior designers seeking thematic collections

• Museums curating exhibitions

• High-end hospitality projects

Based on your preferences, we research, verify, and acquire pieces through our trusted European and Middle Eastern networks. You’ll receive detailed offers with provenance, condition, and pricing analysis — all with zero obligation.

Cataloging and Documentation — Turning History Into Data

Each antique has a story, but without documentation, it risks being forgotten. We offer cataloging services for:

• Personal collections

• Heritage donations

• Liturgical archives

• Diplomatic inventory

Your items will be indexed with descriptions, dates, origin theories, stylistic analysis, and photographic evidence. This service is especially valuable for inheritance, cultural donation, and academic publication.

Consulting for Designers, Institutions, and Curators

Antiques are increasingly sought after in high-end residential and institutional interiors. We collaborate with:

• Set designers and art directors

• Boutique hotel owners

• Museum curators and restorers

• Churches and theological institutions

We provide guidance on authenticity, placement, restoration necessity, and how to combine modern elements with antique aesthetics.

Educational Services — We Share What We Know

Our services go beyond transactions. We believe that knowledge should be shared — and that’s why we offer:

• Private workshops on antique iconography and preservation

• Online courses in identifying hallmarks, bindings, and stylistic periods

• Guided antique shopping experiences in select cities

These sessions are available in English, Ukrainian, and French. Whether you’re a novice collector or a seasoned specialist, our training adapts to your level.
