MUSEUM COLLECTIONS
For nearly 30 years, we have been providing access to our collection, which primarily consists of items dating from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, with a notable representation of the Art Deco style.
The collection is varied and unified by a common theme of authentic household items and women's accessories. These items can be categorized into specific topics, including fans, jewelry, bijouterie, paintings, graphics, photography, porcelain, half-dolls, and various elegant objects.
From the extensive collection, we have selected the most interesting exhibits for our online exhibition, highlighting their historical context, the style of the era, fashion trends, and the special stories related to them.
