BAAF has become an established autumn diary date in the ancient art world. Once again, top international dealers in classical, Egyptian, and Near Eastern antiquities come together in the genteel atmosphere of the Wenkenhof – an elegant baroque residence in Riehen on the outskirts of Basel.

BAAF’s quota of leading world specialists makes it not only the largest, but also the most important fair of its kind under one roof. All participants are members of the International Association of Dealers in Ancient Art (IADAA) and follow a strict code of ethics concerning the authenticity and provenance of the objects they sell. This year brings 16 participants to the Wenkenhof.

Our dedication to quality is evident not only in the objects, but also in the choice of location. The Reithalle Wenkenhof provides a suitably impressive backdrop to the antiquities on display, and is surrounded by a rolling park in the English style – a picture of autumnal russets and browns that invites you for a gentle stroll. Lunch or a refreshment at the BAAF Bistro completes the experience.
