Requiem can be defined in the broadest sense as a "time of remembrance." Here, we honor the artists and designers from the maker of the humble beaten copper cuff to the elaborate enameled gold lavalier. Its our belief that from their original creation, through years of being passed from one hand to the next, these objects take on a life of their own. Most items we offer will somehow convey this. Call it character, vibes, juju or what have you, we like to think of it as good old fashioned "mojo". So listen to your antiques... they're talking to you!

Personally speaking, the most interesting things are those which we know nothing about. The beauty of collecting is the never ending variety; there is always something new to learn.
