A charming house in the heart of Florence reveals its collections: furniture, paintings, silverware, curiosities. Every single object was chosen with taste and skill during the seventies and eighties at the most famous auction houses and merchants who have made the history of Florentine antiques: from the Pitti Auction House, at the International Palace of Auctions and Exhibitions without forgetting Sotheby Parke Bernet and Christie’s.
There is also a small library with books of Art and History.
