“The auction house was great. Their recommended shipper that I initially chose, not so much. They agreed to pick up the item and never did, and didn't communicate at all, and I didn't find out it hadn't been collected until the auction house wrote to find out when I was picking up my item. So, I had a mad scramble to get another shipper who did a great job for us. The auction house communicated well and there were no unexpected surprises with the item, like we've often had with other auction houses. Overall, a great experience.”

“A more professional and trustworthy house you will not find on Live Auctioneers. Their selection of items is always first rate, they know their antiques and they are excellent business people. I love to buy from them as I know everything will go off without a hitch. You will not be disappointed.”

“This was my first time purchasing from this auction firm. The piece was accurately described and a good value. Picked this up. Met the owner and his assistant. They were both very helpful. The owner has extensive knowledge of what he sells which is so important for both buyer and seller. They earned an ***** All 5 Star Rating ***** for this purchase. Thank you.”

4worldlovers: Ever since I can remember, my passion has been photography, and it was all I ever wanted to do. One cannot be a photographer and not be drawn to beautiful things; in my case, the beautiful things included antiques, and it was a natural fit that I would use my own art (photography) to help collectors document their prize collections. As much as I love photography, I could not resist the antiques siren call, and soon I was collecting, too.

For years, photography continued to take center stage as I made a living creating books and catalogs for other collectors. But how does a person engage with collectors, and listen to the stories their treasures tell, and photograph the work, and not himself become passionate about the antiques? Like a jealous girlfriend who needs special attention and time, the beautiful items drew me to them. Still, I was determined I would only buy antiques, never sell them because I wanted to be true to my first love. Until Nine years ago, my dear friend and fellow collector Dr. Dove had other ideas. I had helped him with his book, Samples of Armenian Silver Work, and he was convinced that my knowledge of antiques and my enthusiasm for collecting demanded that it was time for me to open an antique store. I reminded him I knew nothing about selling and that I only wanted to do photography. He was so determined that he offered to partner with me financially, and with his encouragement and generous support, the Pasadena Antique Warehouse opened its doors to the public in 2013.

The store was not a big financial success, but it was worthwhile in important ways. I met many interesting people and inspiring collectors, and enjoyed the sense of community we were building together. I knew that the retail world was moving to the internet, but resisted the trend to switch to internet sales because the personal relationships are so valuable. Still, a retail shop is an enormous investment in time and money more, I came to realize, then I was willing to spend. I wanted to have plenty of time for my family and friends, and travels, and, of course, photography. Over time and with the help of my friend, Mesrop I realized I could have the best of both possible worlds: the meaningful relationships of a mom and pop store with the broad reach of internet sales. The Pasadena Antique Warehouse quarterly internet auction was born.

If you are looking for a large commercial antique auction house, we are not for you. If you want a smooth, hassle-free, reasonably priced transaction with personal service, you will appreciate working with us. We offer four internet auctions a year. All related services are included in our basic fee: research, authentication, generous and well-lit displays, professional photography, packaging, shipping. I am a certified antique appraiser and promise you sound guidance on pricing and value. If the item or lot does not sell in the internet auction, I will continue to promote it in the shop and online through eBay and other antique sales sites. You will never have to deal with a middle-man; I will be working with you from start to finish.
