Design auction
DESIGN 1900-NOW
In the bustling city of Rotterdam – the post-war city with modern design running through its veins – Vendu Rotterdam organises biannual specialised Design auctions. This auction puts the 20th and 21st century utensil in the spotlight. Both the viewing days and the sale itself are a hub for professionals, gallery owners, avid collectors and interested individuals who share a love for design.
Your expert for this auction is Marcel Brouwer, a highly qualified appraiser with over 15 years of national and international experience in the field of auctions. Besides being a certified appraiser he also is a publicist and a specialist for several TV programs, such as Tussen Kunst & Kitsch (Dutch Antiques Roadshow).
