We would like to introduce ourselves
 |
Heineman is a real family business run by Mr. Heineman Sr. and his
wife and since 1984 son Robert and his wife. Heineman Antiques from
Terschuur has had experience with the buying and selling of antique
British furniture for over 45 years. In those days Mr. Heineman Sr. set
out to the English countryside himself. |

Later on, his son went with him. Together they found the best
addresses in (the south of) England and Wales. Were the purchased
antiques mainly sold to Dutch antique dealers in the past, since some
years we also aim at selling to private persons. Nowadays it is too time
consuming to do all the buying in Britain ourselves. There still are
some nice antiques to be found because British tradition, its rich past
and the ‘we don’t throw anything away’ attitude provides for many
antiques in houses and farms.

We buy at British wholesalers, who do the searching for antiques for
us. These wholesalers do not only have wharehouses with furniture, they
also often have restoring workshops.Most of the antiques are restored in
Britain. The expertise is higher and defintely cheaper because of lower
wages expences.
We only sell straightforward designed furniture; this means no carved
out doorpanels or pillars. Most of our collection dates from 1800 to
1880. Sometimes a bit older, sometimes a bit younger pieces. Because of
the timeless design, they are easily combinable with modern furnishing
of homes and offices.
Antiques are good and stable investments.
| Because
we are a real family business, without an expensive building in a
luxureous shooping area ( no overhead expences) and because we are buing
ourselves and service, prices if our furniture are reasonable. |
 |
 |
Often people boggle at the prices of antiques. People do not realise
that antiques are relatively cheap because they keep their value.
Genuine antiques are stable. Furthermore, it is environment friendly..
Genuine antiques require no cut in rainforests because the furniture is
over 100 years old. Antique furniture is more a kind of recycling. |
We have a unique trade-in guarantee.:
| To all our antique furniture applies a unique trade-in guarantee.
Whoever buys something, is entitled to trade-in his/her piece once. We

based on and upholstered pieces of furniture, apply no
exchanging guarantees. |

Antique golfclubs:
Apart from antique furniture, we also have a series of old golfclubs
in stock. The collection came about because of the golf hobby of father
and son. We have genuine wooded drivers with hickory shafts, metal
putters and other clubs with names as ‘mashie’ (mid-iron), ‘niblick’ (short-iron)
and the ‘deep-face’ (wedge) on sale for prices ranging from several tens
to several hundreds of euro's, depending on quality and curiosity.
