RETRO – current phenomenon

Design 60s-80s is now trendy. In the field of renovation of antique furniture we have been active for 25 years and during those years I note a significant shift in sales of antiques. In the 90s from Czech republic was exported antique furniture to foreign countries, it was predictable, after all, the inability to trade in the past, and large economic disparities to facilitate this. At the beginning of the 21st century the business started to gradually change, historic furniture again began to import mostly from France.

In recent times we have seen increased interest of foreign clients of furniture from the Czechoslovak production from the 60s-80s of the 20th century. Traders began re-export furniture from Czech republic that is beyond became very popular. Even though we lived in normalization and it was the industrial production, it was used quality materials. Architects, who designed the furniture, they have education from pre-war period. And even under socialism it was not just desirable, they could often design a remarkable product and imprint them worldliness. These days Czech clientele begin to realize that this furniture with timeless design is functional with a touch of nostalgia. Given the ever-increasing demand for this furniture and its restoration can be described as antique. That is why we also organized an exhibition of Czechoslovakia 60s-80s. And we started to offer this retro furniture after excelent renovation.
