Perfect Old Things grew out of a shared love for the process of collecting. Together, siblings Max and Rebecca began building a collection of historically and aesthetically significant decorative art objects, antiques, and fine artworks—each bringing specialized knowledge and a keen eye to the process.
Today, Perfect Old Things is evolving into a specialized gallery dedicated primarily to mid-century and interwar European ceramics, with a singular focus on bringing the visionary, Art Deco pottery of Clarice Cliff to American collectors. From bold Bizarre lines to vibrant hand-painted motifs, each piece is selected to highlight the innovative forms and expressive colorways that define Cliff’s legendary work.
At its core, the gallery is driven by a devotion to visual harmony and artistic intent. Every collection is curated with the contemplative precision of a fine art composition—aiming to inspire collectors to become custodians of these artifacts through the cultivation of a balanced, seasonal selection of Perfect Old Things.
