The objects described on the site are true to life. The delivery of very fragile objects (porcelain, biscuit...) is done in excellent conditions (speed, quality of packaging). I recommend this site "

The delivery was perfect, with a delay due to the replacement of two lamps that were broken during preparation, which were redone in the same way (cut at an angle). The preparation of the 3 parcels is not subject to any criticism: - high quality reinforced cardboard, nothing to do with classic cardboard. - each pendant individually wrapped, crepe paper then bubble paper - packages abundantly filled with shockproof materials - careful and respectful carrier (no shocks on the 3 packages). The email exchanges are an example to follow for the quality of the follow-up of an online order. I was kept informed in real time of all the steps, in a courteous and professional manner. The customer service is exemplary."

The collection scope is very focused and all the works of art are professionally selected in top class standards. This time in Atena, I am lucky enough to find a precious alabaster nude sculpture, which I have been looking for years. One more thing I should mention is, all the art works are in excellent condition, and well preserved by the owner. All in all, great communication, excellent shopping experience, will come back again. Very unique gallery in Paris with exquisite antiques! Highly recommend to all antique lovers. :)"

This is a most exquisite delicate piece, and damage as can occur to such rare pieces will do so during shipping. Leaving aside its monetary value (any such damage will be covered by insurance) it is obvious that the vendor appreciates the intrinsic timeless beauty of the piece - and what it represents - as the packaging ensured it would survive the roughest handling undamaged. As it did."

"Hello Mr Sioufi, I still remember the famous evening when I discovered your sculpture. An emblematic silhouette, which is easily recognisable, even if one quickly flies over your new acquisitions. I often contemplated this sculpture and at the same time watched the sales, but in spite of the various existing models, they are not legion or only on auction. This also explains why, especially with this object, I had some experience of the differences it could have. Finally, your gallery had one. You had to seize the opportunity! But nothing was won! On the one hand, there is the passion but also the financial aspect which is not negligible either! Then there is the doubt, did I do the right thing in embarking on this adventure? Especially at the moment, in these tense and uncertain times. You will also read that it flies away quickly. I received the parcel yesterday evening, perfectly packaged, I only understood when I saw the sculpture the origin of the "fragile" mention. Some parts are brought back, which accentuates its fragility. The discovery was not immediate, but it is always a source of indescribable happiness. After a careful unpacking, some details started to appear, for example the tip of the sword and later the claws of the dragon, finally the whole sculpture was revealed to my eyes. It takes some time for the eye to catch the subtleties and the finesse of the details, because yes, Emmanuel Frémier was an artist who had an eye for detail. The French language has a rich lexical field, but sometimes, one is forced to note, that one does not always find the words. What can I say about the spurs! They are simply sublime! Indeed, they sublimate the object by their presence thus completing the object perfectly, and the quality of the realization so finely carried out is quite simply impressive worthy of a great artist, with the passage you will be able to congratulate it on my part. As you pointed out, you should not be influenced by the photos because in reality, the result is even better. To the question. Was the restoration worth it? Yes, without any hesitation! I also know that I am not an easy customer and for this I would like to thank you in particular for your patience and also for your accommodating offer which enabled me to acquire this object. Many thanks to you and your wife. Yours sincerely".

"Dear Frederic, I have been in a rarified state for hours, ever since the paintings were delivered. The kind of fanciful reverie that sometimes happens in the presence of beauty...including beautiful works of art. Why, I wonder, was I so unfamiliar with his work? I don't recall ever seeing paintings that capture more tenderly moments of shared love portrayed within the domestic quietude of interiors so detailed and so well rendered they rival Rembrandt and Vermeer. And, just think! I don't have to go to the Louvre to see them. You have made it possible for me to gaze upon these Van Den Eycken masterpieces in my own home. Indeed, they are already hanging in the living room as I write. I can't possibly express my gratitude. May you and your family have a wonderful Holiday Season, Frederic. With this newest reason to be grateful, I am Your Friend"

"When I first visited the Galerie Atena at the Louvre des Antiquaires, which is located just behind the Louvre Museum, my attention was immediately drawn to the bronze statues, full of life, and it was like a party. Every time I go to Paris, I visit the different sites of Galerie Atena: the gallery near the Palais de l'Elysée, the refined villa in the quiet confines of Paris, and the luxurious Napoleon III-style flat. Wandering through the forest of antique and precious objects, one doesn't even notice the time passing and is totally amazed to imagine what the residences of the nobles of the time could have gathered. The gleaming clocks, the wooden cabinets that still sparkle, the refined chests and marble columns from important old houses, each part of these objects tells the stories of the 18th and 19th centuries. At noon, the clocks on the tables, in the cabinets and hanging on the walls tell the time all at the same time, which provides such a wonderful scene. Every time I touch the bronze statues at home, I feel as if Mr and Mrs Sioufi are right next to me, whispering the story of each object. I miss Paris again."

"Hello Mrs Sioufi, Last night I left a message to tell you that the package had arrived. The discovery! It took me a good thirty minutes to free the beautiful statue from its cardboard sarcophagus, the packaging was substantial, you do things the right way. And there, total amazement, she appeared to me in all her splendour. After having put it on the chest of drawers, it is very discreet because of its beautiful patina, and from certain angles it is even golden, but once the eyes have hung it, it is all I can see, I really have the impression that it was just made for this place. At the very beginning of our exchange I was a bit apprehensive, I admit, but in the end I don't regret my choice. I also thank you for the dictionary of sculptors, the preface is very interesting because we discover the process of casting, filled! Sincerely yours."

I would like to thank you very much for your diligence and for the care taken in preparing this delivery. The confiturier corresponds perfectly to my wishes, and finally, it is all the better with ten little spoons, allowing me to fully contemplate the union of the two antique figures."

"Dear Frederic, Well, she arrived a few hours ago, safe and sound. As expected, she is a beauty. The young lady is not only beautiful she has a "presence", if you know what I mean. What a perfect, timeless young face to welcome all who enter the foyer. Now that she has taken up residence it seems as if that space has been waiting for her arrival. I will take a picture and send it to you later this week.

"Hello Frederic, The clock arrived in perfect condition thanks to your super packaging! It is very impressive, a monument of the Restoration style and of a quality absolutely at the level of the best Empire and Consulate. I really like the little dolphins typical of the 1820s. I haven't attached the pendulum yet. When everything is done we will send you a picture of the new home of the Tiber god. For the moment I can only thank you for your patience.
