How to use our service

Antique & Collectible hunting service

Ask Diogenes is an easy-to-use personal search service. We find antiques, furniture, artifacts, memorabilia, collectibles, baubles, rare and unusual books, trumpery, artworks, ornaments, and other curiosities for our clients. We save you valuable time and energy by doing the detective work for you.

Books
First Edition - Antiquarian - Collected - Rare

Take advantage of our extensive resources to find the books you are looking for. We can provide a one-off search for any title. Additionally, if you are a collector of a particular author, we can provide an on-going search, informing you of our discoveries on a weekly or monthly basis.

Replacements
China - Silverware - Dinnerware - Glass & Crystal

Lacking a piece of your dinner service or tea set? We will find replacement pieces to make your collection complete again. Wedgewood, Waterford, antique or contemporary, don't let a missing piece diminish the value of your collection.

Collectibles
Clocks - Vintage Toys - Memorabilia - Dolls

We find antique, mechanical and cast-iron toys; vintage toys, games and all manner of dolls from GI Joe and Barbie to Kewpie and victorian wood and china figures. Are you a collector of movie and music memorabilia? We can help you, too. As with our book-finding service, we can provide, at your request, regular updates when we discover an item within your specified area of interest.
