We sell European antiques and contemporary finds including art, furniture, lighting and accessories from our showroom in New York City. We work with many architects, interior designers and are also open to the public. Each item we have was hand-selected by Barbara Kirshbaum, the owner and founder of BK Antiques.
Barbara has been on over 150 buying trips (and counting!) to Europe and Asia, combing the markets (often with her associate, Paul Heath) in France, England, Belgium, Sweden, Italy, Spain and China-searching for the unique, the chic, and the exceptional.

Services
We ship anywhere in the United States. We pass on all shipping expenses to you, the buyer. We will be happy to send things out on approval for your consideration and if the pieces don't fit your needs they can be returned to us in a timely manner. Please contact us to discuss the items you're interested in.
With a large selection of decorative accessories, we endeavor to offer pieces that add warmth and character to your designs. Our pieces run the gamut from desk accessories to sculpture to waste baskets but a specialty of ours is ceramics. We seek out contemporary potters from France, Italy, The Netherlands and Belgium as well as the US who are doing work which fits our aesthetic, mixing these pieces with our vintage finds.
Table lamps, standing lamps, lanterns and chandeliers both antique and contemporary from France, Italy, Spain and England. Our lighting is wired to US specifications and can be UL listed if required. Lampshades are generally not included with lamps unless specified but we can supply them for an additional fee.
A selection of coffee tables, small end and side tables, console tables and games tables from France, Italy, Belgium and England. With brass coffee tables, wooden end tables and small ceramic tables being just a few examples of our pieces, we endeavor to find tables that are not only practical but elegant as well.

Barbara and the staff at BK Antiques are our most trusted guides when it comes to curating beautiful and often unique Continental antique furniture pieces. Barbara is one of the few dealers in New York who still travels abroad to meet with boutique collectors who are selling exceptional pieces from private homes and collections. Every piece Barbara selects has an element of sophistication and style that is remarkable. Her taste is unparalleled.
