Galerie Atena was founded in 2001 by Frédéric Sioufi and Nidal Ouaiss. The couple is partner in life as well as in the passion for their profession. They opened a gallery in the heart of Paris, at the Louvre des Antiquaires, nearby the Louvre Museum. Since 20 years, Frédéric and Nidal have patiently selected each item for their gallery based on its beauty, authenticity, and condition. Their pursuit of rare objects of unparalleled execution allows them to propose a selection of items whose value doesn’t depend on fanciful speculation or passing trends. They share a passion for the discovery of new objects, and they do not hesitate to invest in unusual pieces, treating them as a fresh adventure. Their greatest satisfaction is to share the pleasure of their discoveries with their customers while building lasting relationships based on mutual trust and appreciation. Today, their eldest daughters, Naomi and Emma, are the third generation to join the adventure. The two young women bring a fresh impulse to the gallery. Naomi contributes to the company's digital development and communication on social networks. Emma, meanwhile, completes the skills set of the gallery's restoration workshop.
