    Redbaron9011 You can call me Marco

    Hey there! I'm Marco, 22 years old and I live in the Netherlands. My grandpa came out of a household of 11 sons and 4 of them took the chance to become antiquer. Nobody in the family wanted to take the time to learn their knowledge, but since I was a little boy I was always interested in the tales and stories of the unique pieces they had. My goal is to take our family history into the future and I will make sure to learn everything I can.

    My interest in antique parts are mostly in porcelain, glasswork and cabinets/tables made with exclusive timber, preferably from the empire period.

    At the moment I've got my own bicycle store and a collection of 38 retro road bikes with the oldest being a Jabo Amsterdam from 1953 and the youngest a Koga Miyata from 1970, but those have nothing to do with antique I guess.

    I hope to fit in the community here and will help out people with my knowledge since I expect you can help me out too sometimes.

    TL;DR : Marco, 22 years , the Netherlands, bicycle store owner and hoping to open antique store.

    Welcome Marco! My own grandfather was one of 16 children, so their history is virtually uncovered yet extensive. Best of luck to you!
