BASEL.-The Basel Ancient Art Fair (BAAF) opens today until November 9. It offers you the opportunity to visit 15 leading specialists from all over the world, dealing in classical, Egyptian and Near Eastern antiquities. Every year, for some decades, Basel has been host to top dealers in ancient art. BAAF is building on this long tradition of Basel as a meeting place for connoisseurs of antiquities. In the historical ambiance of the well-known Wenkenhof situated in a beautiful park in Riehen, just outside Basel, BAAF promises to become a delightful ancient art event. All participants of BAAF are members of the International Association of Dealers in Ancient Art (IADAA) and follow a strict code of ethics concerning the authenticity and provenance of the objects they sell. They look forward to meeting you again in Basel.
