Our Platform

Modernista.ch is a platform designed primarily for Professional buyers, collectors, as well as for dealers and galleries looking for curated design and vintage pieces, approached with seriousness, transparency and professionalism.

We clearly differentiate ourselves from traditional vintage furniture shop by having developed an innovative, customer-oriented business model, built to offer the best real market prices from private sellers.

Total transparency

Modernista focuses on sourcing high-quality furniture and makes visible:

  • the actual acquisition cost of each product,
  • the location of the item,
  • the original prices requested by private sellers,
