History

The AVELINE Gallery is one of the leading 18th century furniture galleries in Paris thanks to the quality and diversity of the antiques it offers.

Behind AVELINE is an antique dealer of standing, Jean-Marie Rossi, who has exercised his profession for fifty years, starting in 1956 with Maurice Aveline in a gallery at the corner of Rue du Cirque and Faubourg Saint Honoré.

His open mind and eclectic taste, combined with the excellent quality of his furniture, soon transformed the gallery into an address well known by connoisseurs. This is why major collectors and antique lovers in search of exceptional pieces, as well as museums, have shown confidence in us by becoming our clients. The very name of Aveline is a guarantee of quality, and it is frequently quoted as a reference.

The AVELINE Gallery moved to Place Beauvau in 1999, into premises spread over an area of 600 square metres. Its layout, in a succession of soberly decorated salons, was designed to display the furniture and objets d’art in an attractive and eye-catching way.

AVELINE is backed by a highly efficient staff, always willing to welcome you to the gallery and show you the masterpieces that have collected from all over Europe. These treasures share in common a superb quality, authenticity and originality. They date from the end of the 17th century to the middle of the 19th century, and frequently originate from royal or princely collections.
