First
European Shipping:
Who we are, and how you can
use this website to shop for antiques from Europe?

"An empty ballroom" was how
H.L. Mencken described Budapest. He couldn't have been further
from the truth. Budapest is full - of antique stores brimming
with the kind of Art Deco and Art Nouveau treasures that
in most other cities are difficult to find or prohibitively
expensive.
The only problem is, they don't fit into your carry-on bag.
That's where First European Shipping comes in.
At First European Shipping, our expertise is primarily
in the furniture of Central Europe covering the periods
of
Baroque, Biedermeier, Art Nouveau and
Art Deco
.
Generally, we work with American antique dealers to provide
them with inventory for their businesses back in the States.
But we are also glad to accommodate individual requests.
We offer a variety of services in purchasing and shipping
antiques.
If you have the pleasure of visiting Budapest and you purchase
antiques while here, we'll ship them home for you. If you
didn't get to come to Budapest but there's something on
this webpage that interests you, we'll send it to you.

If
there's something you had in mind and it isn't on the webpage,
let us know and we'll find it for you and get it to your door.
Our policy is that we will scour the shops of Europe to find
a special piece, whether it's a turn-of-the-century Viennese
cabinet or a French Art Deco dining set in rare Macassar ebony.
Where do we find our pieces?
In unpronounceable villages, obscure flea markets, small
town galleries, big city auction houses and all points in
between.
Browse our webpage. If you see something that tempts you,
let us know and we'll get it to you. If there's something
else your heart longs for and you don't find it here, drop
us an e-mail and we'll find it for you.
|
Whatever piece you purchase, we'll get it from here to your door.
Anywhere. Securely. Affordably.
We promise that you won't lift a finger - or anything else.
Our specialty is to transport antiques from anywhere in Budapest
to anywhere you want them sent.
No bureaucracy. No hassle.
Just safe, careful transport at astonishingly reasonable rates.
Enjoy browsing our site, and we look forward to hearing from you
