Founded in New York in October 2024 by brothers Alexander and Soliman Aboutaam, their startup was born from a shared goal to reimagine the connection between historical art and modern living.

Inspired by a private family collection established in the mid-20th century, the brothers are determined to honor tradition while reinterpreting it through contemporary design and technology.

With limitation to fine materials, significant history, and intensive handcraftsmanship, Antico Contempo provides a unique singular experience and product so that the right person recognizes it immediately.

Every step of the process is handled with the care that millennia of history demands. You know exactly what you are getting and precisely why it matters.

Think of the art, style, and sites that brought you thousands of miles from home. The objects behind glass doors, the faces on ancient walls. They are now held in your hands forever.
