history

Jesper Larsen Antik was founded in 1987 in a small closed down auto repair shop in a backyard at Vesterbrogade near Pile Allé and the park "Søndermarken". Already at this point I had been employed for several years by my father who gave me my basic training.

Rather quickly it was necessary to have more space, so the shop was expanded with more workshops in the same building as they became vacant.
With the expansion it was necessary to have more employees, so today we are three full-time assistants and one apprentice. During peak periods we are five employees, but then we "matter a lot to each other" – in other words, we have each of us very little space. But it is cosy and we are very pleased with our small oasis in the backyard of Frederiksberg, so we are staying as long as possible.

All employees have been taught in the company and have after their apprenticeships came to an end wanted to stay on in the shop either as permanently employed or as casual labourers.

In 1998 the company was transformed into a partnership and is from then called Jesper Larsen Antik ApS.

In 2003-2004 we were asked to restore the permanent exhibition of the Whim Museum on St. Croix, US Virgin Islands. It was a large and fascinating task which meant a lot of travelling, and of course work and adventure.
As a result of this, we got the task of restoring all the furniture for a new auctioneering business on St. Croix. The furniture can be seen on www.mahogany-auctions.com.

Besides this our clients comprise:

Danish and foreign auctioneers
Insurance companies
Banks
Large private companies
Embassies
Castles and manor houses
Museums
Antique dealers
Movie companies
Private collectors
and many more
