On Tuesday, April 1st, 2014, at 10 AM, the Antiques Dealers’ Association of America (ADA) will commence with its inaugural online antiques show. The show will run around the clock until Thursday, April 3 at 10:00 PM (at which time the show page will disappear and the show will be over and off the internet). No travel, no traffic, no bad weather, no tickets—this show will be available to anyone, in any locale on ones desktop computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone.

Our members are excited about this innovative event and we anticipate great offerings from our diverse dealers. We have asked our dealers to hold back items for this show just as they would for any other show. So expect to see the best in American antiques and fine art, folk art, Americana, Native American, and other decorative arts.

And being an ADA event, each item is sold with a guarantee of authenticity!

The Antiques Dealers' Association of America, Inc. (ADA) was established in May 1984 as a non-profit trade association. Its major objective is to make more professional the business of buying and selling antiques.

Membership is composed of professional antiques dealers who are dedicated to integrity, honesty and ethical conduct in the antiques trade. To be accepted, dealers must have a minimum of four years experience in the trade, be recommended by a committee of peers and must sign a certification agreeing to abide by the bylaws of ADA.

All members are required to guarantee their merchandise in writing on a sales receipt which must state approximate age, origin, condition and restoration, if any, of all pieces that are sold.
