Collecting ancient art should be a truly enriching experience. At Phoenix Ancient Art, we believe that first and foremost, a collector should experience a deep, personal connection to an object which extends beyond an appreciation of its great beauty. Throughout history, antiquities have inspired artists and writers, conquerors and politicians. The backdrop against which modern collectors of ancient art find themselves is woven from the civilizations that formed the fabric of the western world; to own a part of that rich tradition allows the collector to glimpse into the very essence of humanity. When a collector senses this unique amalgamation of the rich elements of history, culture, symbolism and beauty and the very private, intimate bond between piece and collector is forged; only then do we feel we have done our job.
At Phoenix Ancient Art it's our goal to develop and nurture such relationships, because we believe this is how true satisfaction is derived from acquiring a work of ancient art. We will never try to convince a client to acquire something he or she does not feel strongly about. More than just art dealers, we see ourselves as custodians of the world’s cultural and artistic heritage, a responsibility that we hope to share with collectors as we work together to develop and care for the finest collections of ancient art.
To achieve that goal, every piece that Phoenix Ancient Art acquires is personally selected by Ali and Hicham Aboutaam for its intrinsic beauty and artistic value, as well as its historical importance. Thereby, they ensure that our clients have access to works of the highest quality and artistic merit.
