- Dear Marjolein,
The package arrived yesterday (Monday), the 29th, in fine shape. It was a very pleasant surprise because I hadn’t expected it until tomorrow.The bronzes are beautiful and my wife and I are so pleased. Thank you so much also for the very interesting paperwork (certificates, photos and reference material) which accompanied them. The packaging material you employed was new to me and it served its purpose very well – very protective and facilitated opening. The patina on each piece is beautiful and unblemished.I look forward to your next treasures when they appear.With warmest regards and thanks,M.N.USA

Spain - Dear Marjolein, The Bouraine art deco hoop dancer arrived this morning, in perfect condition. It is exquisite and I love it. Like the first item I ordered from you, your packing is a work of art in itself. Your documentation package is also impressive – I especially appreciate your including copies of references and articles about the artist.
As for the shipping, FedEx was extremely fast. I remitted payment on Saturday and the sculpture is on display in my house in the following Wednesday.
With much thanks,
MC
USA - Dear Marjolein,
M. and I are delighted to share our absolute delight with the LeVerrier lamps that we purchased from Marjolein! She was a consummate professional in her dealings with us–from promptly answering in detail, every question we had concerning the lamps to packing them so securely that they made the trip from Antwerp to our home, arriving in perfect condition.
The lamps are even more beautiful than Marjolein described!
She is not only a specialist in presenting such beautiful examples of the Art Deco period, but also the most pleasant person to work with.
We look forward to working with Marjolein as we discover other examples of art from this period.
Kindest regards,
W & M,
USA - I am so happy with this acquisition. A stunning Art Deco sculpture with lamp that arrived, expertly packaged, looking even better in person than in the pictures. I can’t recommend highly enough the services of Deconamic and Marjolein personally. The whole process was marked by professionalism and efficiency. Kind regards, M. USA
- Dear Marjolein,
I believe this is probably one of the most subtle and challenging aspects of your craft.In the end we never really possess these fine works of art, but are mere custodians who have the privilege of their enlightening presence in our everyday lives with the incomparable aura of heritage and emotions they radiate.To recompense all this, I believe it is a moral responsibility to ensure that these works are passed on to others who have the sensitivity and cultural background truly able to understand, cherish and most of all protect them.Finding the perfect balance in the context of the burdens and necessities of an enterprise is a mark of true professionalism: my sincere compliments Marjolein.Best regards,R. V.
Italy - Dear Marjolein – the great Auks have completed their significant migration to New Zealand. They were delivered to our home one hour ago. They are beautiful and we are most pleased with our purchase. Thank you for packaging them so well and for you attention to detail during this process – spending money is always easy but made so much better when you know you are in good hands at the other end. We have very much appreciated your assistance. To you and your family this Christmas we send good wishes from New Zealand. We hope for a more inspirational and aspirational 2022….and be assured the Great Auks have come to a good home Sincerely, TC
New Zealand - Dear Marjolein,
Just to let you know that I just received the sculpture. It took me a few minutes to complete the unpacking, thank you very much for the care put in the packing, it arrived in perfect condition, everything according to the description and the photographies. I do not know where to place the sculpture because it looks great everywhere. Honestly, contemplating this bronze makes me wonder if the current standards of the Art must be reviewed. Thank you so much also for the documentation provided, and let me congratulate to you for the service provided and the amazing items that you offer.
Best regards, J
Spain - Dear Marjolein,
The art deco sculpture arrived today. I love it! The delivery was amazingly fast, and I am very impressed by the excellent packing job. Your packing was a work of art in itself! Really, I appreciate every aspect of working with you and Deconamic – your detailed communication, the documentation, etc. It was a pleasure to deal with you. Maybe one day I can visit your gallery in person. If your travels should ever bring you to the US, it would be a pleasure to welcome you here.

Well, thanks again and I hope that you have a nice weekend.
