They adamantly refuse to give any information about who owned the estate worth millions that recently came to Stuttgart: 14 semi-trailers full of the most valuable antiques, historical paintings, Asian porcelain or Danish silver, such as the fish serving plate with an estimated value of 30,000 to 50,000 euros. Rare watches such as a “Mysteriéuse Modèle A” by Cartier or a valuable snuff box with the portrait of Marie Antoinette. And around 600 handbags. From Hermès or Fendi, some of them hard to get hold of, some never worn. From delivery to auction, every object is checked for authenticity and origin. Photographed, documented, catalogued and valued. Decades of experience, modern technology and international connections help to identify even things that have no signature. There are big and small stories behind it - and there are always surprises.
