Art, history and exquisite beauty collide in a unique way at Artistoric. Founded in 2020 by husband-and-wife duo Bailey Tichenor and Michael Assis, the well-curated online gallery offers historical decorative arts that appeal to a new generation. Using a research-based approach similar to a museum, the Miami couple acquires pieces that are aesthetically impactful and have historical meaning—in particular pre-1900s ceramics—and recently expanded their offerings to include fine art and furnishings.

The result is a gallery ripe with themes and complementary objects that reveal their relationship to one another and place in history. “We try not to limit our gallery’s scope, looking for anything we find interesting and that others might, too,” Tichenor says. “This approach has enabled us to acquire some really wonderful things and uncover fascinating stories.”
