Seller's Story

I am a middle-aged man living in Italy, born in the 1970s. I love life, sports, collecting, and visiting European antique fairs and shops. I collect old and medieval objects from the East and Europe, including porcelain, silverware, bronzeware, banknotes, and stamps. This is my life.
