Highest Priced Antic in the United-Arab-Emirates

JUMEIRAH, UAE - Oct. 20, 2013 - PRLog -- Have you ever been to an antiques shop and wondered why it's all so valuable? Well some people truly buy in to the idea of antiques being priceless, and some truly astonishingly huge sums have been paid for some of the most valuable antiques. Usually for an item to be considered priceless there can be no other piece quite like it, or it has to have phenomenal origins. People purchase these items because they are testaments to our history and the past.

Elegance FZC (Also known as Elegance.ae) as an exclusive distributor of French imported antics in the United-Arab-Emirates is in possession of the most expensive Antic item listed in the emirate of Dubai.

Between million dirham clocks and furnitures, a "regulateur de parquet" from the eighteenth century just beat the record for the priciest listed antic in the emirate of Dubai, reaching for almost eleven million dirham (three million dollars).

Perhaps it is because our time here on earth is so short in the grand scheme of things that some collectors are willing to spend literally millions on antiques, many of which may have been considered worthless in their own time. Or, it could be that human nature leads us to want something that no one else on the planet can boast of having.

In the Emirate of Dubai, where people spend millions on their cars and jewelerry, very few connoisseurs truly appreciate the rare beauty of these pieces. The focus shifting from the loud and showing, to the suttle and elegant.
