100 Years Products
Recently, a few old paintings from our family’s private collection came into our hands — and then something happened that can’t be planned: it hit us instantly. The first thought was completely honest: This can’t be real. These works are 100+ years old — and still feel remarkably color-true, calm, and present.
We researched, dated, and compared them. And that’s where the insight landed: art is one of the very few products that doesn’t become “used up” after a couple of years. It doesn’t get technically outdated. It doesn’t disappear because a new model arrives. Even long-lasting assets — like real estate — require repeated renewal over the decades. A strong original artwork, however, can still hang on walls in 100 years — in homes, companies, galleries — still carrying impact and high value.
In that moment, something became truly clear to us as artists: what is created here is not five or ten years of enjoyment, but Works that can accompany generations at their best.
An original is not a short-term impulse — it’s a statement with legacy character.
For that kind of longevity, it takes more than concept and composition. It also takes consistent decisions in materials and protection. That’s why our works follow a durable approach and professional surface protection — including our standard:
Sealed with Swiss museum-quality varnish — hand-sprayed in two coats.
The historical images shown below (private examples) are our proof in hand: color and presence can still be there after more than 100 years.
When you receive a work from us, you receive an original that can outlast generations.
Even on a record scale, the principle remains true: the legendary Gustav Klimt portrait of the young lady (Lederer) is also over 100 years old — and became a symbol of how art can develop value over time.
