Art
& Antiques from Europe
Antiques by Alternatives is a company based
in the United
States but we also have a location in France for storing our
inventory. We work with a network of European
dealers and collectors who have direct access to art and
antiques, many of the pieces that never find their way into
the normal antique channels. In addition to the antiques we are able to
locate through our sources, we maintain a broad
inventory of European art in our
gallery
. We offer shipping and restoration services customized to your
needs, whether for one piece or a container, and can be contacted via email or telephone using the information
available on our ' Contact
Us' page.
Quality and beauty are ideals that we adhere to in our
search for fine art, antiques and decorative accessories. We
always describe our items truthfully and take great care to
provide information on imperfections and the condition of
the items as well as any provenance that is known.
Our goals are to provide quality service to our clients
and to share our passion for fine art and antiques.
A
Broad Selection of Periods and Styles
Browse our online inventory and discover art and antiques
that represent a wide range of periods and styles from
the delicacy of Louis XIV to
the rich, fine inlaid woods of 19th century Charles X
and the wide variety of artistic movements from classical to
contemporary.
Our pieces are authentic and we stand behind our
descriptions.
They are made with
precious materials and woods, traditional materials and
techniques; displaying craftsmanship that has nearly
disappeared and
remains unequaled in most items produced today.
Our fine art offerings have included drawings, paintings and sculptures from
well known artists of the past and present such as Eugene Delacroix, Jean
Baptiste Oudry, Ceytaire, and Georges Picard as well as works by
other less well known artists.
Visit
our Online
Gallery and discover original
masterpieces that will enhance or create an environment that will
delight the senses. We maintain a
mailing
list for customers who would like to know when new items
are listed or for those who are interested in our
newsletters on the care of art and antiques.
