Recognized by the sign of the Syndicat National des Antiquaires, the members are united with a common code of ethics: Authenticity - Quality - Honourability.

They give, to the collectors and buyers in general, all the possible warranties for purchases and sales, as well as general and estate valuations.

The antique dealers, members of the Syndicat National des Antiquaires, contribute efficiently to the protection of the French heritage by identifying and valuing art objects, and by bringing their knowledge for their preservation and their conservation.

The Syndicat National des Antiquaires has organized for over 40 years the Biennale des Antiquaires, a prestigious fair where the best professionals of the world display their most precious objects. Since 2003 the Salon du Collectionneur has alternated with the Biennale; it will take place again in 2009, in the Grand Palais.
