About Sonar furniture
Out of another company which existed already for 30 years, we launched Sonar in 2023 to present you an unique selection of contemporary and classical art, design, midcentury furniture and collectibles. All these items, we procured them with private customers: collectors or private people, who sold their items. Therefore we can present you an unique selection of items. Often these pieces have never been presented on any other marketplace or saleroom, which makes them unique.
