We do not focus ourselves on a style or in a particular historical period and not even in a restricted typology of objects. We have full knowledge in the antique jewel and Murano glass world, but we also offer furniture, paintings and decorative objects that we choose with care and professionalism.
Each object is proposed in the state of preservation in which it’s found or restored by our best craftsmen with which we collaborate since we started this activity. People to whom we personally trust and consider as family members and that always guarantee the utmost professionalism and ability in the intervention to which they are called.
In addition, we also give our Guarantee certificate where each piece is carefully described in all of its features, with its photograph and our signature. We always leave the possibility to change the purchased object at any time. For us this is the best way to ensure the product and to protect our customers.
Antique Rare and Vintage Jewels
An antique jewel is much more than its mere value in terms of gold, silver or precious stones. Antique jewels are stories which are passed down through generations, where the world of the past and that of the present meet. They are rare and wonderful works of art, which reflect the periods in which they were created.
Antique silverware: rare and precious objects and ornaments
The history of silver is millenary: it started with the very first civilizations and has been improved throughout centuries thanks to skilled silversmiths. Although less precious than gold, this malleable material is equally charming. Silver everyday objects have been largely used since ancient times. Thanks to its brightness, resistance and plasticity, silver can be used to create objects which are highly beautiful and shiny. These precious pieces of craftwork convey a sumptuous aspect to the table and to the entire house.
Antique and vintage paintings
Paintings are among the most precious decorative objects that can be displayed in one’s house or art collection. Only an expert eye is able to distinguish original antique paintings from reproductions and copies. A deep knowledge and ongoing study of antique art enable the experienced antiquarian team of Passione Antiqua to recognise and categorize these interesting works of art.
Antique glasses and crystals
Glass has a mysterious charm. The combination of the fragility, preciousness, malleability and fluidity of this kind of material enables the skilful hands of expert glassblowers to create stunning works of art. A collection of antique Murano glass, for example, is a gateway to the past, a small art museum that can evoke the ancient tradition of glassmaking.
Antique porcelain and ceramics
Antique porcelain and ceramics are different from the modern ones for some peculiar characteristics. Only an expert eye could distinguish an antique porcelain from a copy, as also the style of a craftsman or a particular historical period from another.
Antique and vintage clocks
Each antique watch is a piece of history, and which story could be more interesting than that of an instrument that measures the time? It is the result of mankind’s desire to capture the most elusive dimension of their life. Time is still difficult to comprehend and explain, but at least we managed to enclose it in these little but precise tools. The story of watches is as old as mankind’s attempt to measure it. First by observing the movements of the sun and creating sundials, then by installing mechanical clocks on bell towers and monastery, and nowadays by using modern chronographs and satellite timekeeping.
Antique furniture and furnishing accessories
A piece of antique furniture that has been kept in good condition is an object whose value can increase over time. It needs to be evaluated and sold by experts in the field, who can bring into play their experience and deep knowledge not only to analyse the object and estimate its value, but also to give advice to clients about maintenance.
