Malleries is a multi-dealer Antique and Luxury Goods venue. Our shop owners offer the finest items from select dealers worldwide. Our inventory includes Antiques, Fine Art, Architectural Elements, Furniture, Lighting, Objets de Vertu, Porcelain, Sterling Silver, Art Glass, Jewelry, Textiles and Vintage Clothing from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. Aside from antiques, Malleries has expanded by creating a very popular Luxury Goods department and opening their doors to dealers who offer only Authentic Luxury Goods such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Hermes.

 

At Malleries our goal is to maintain the highest quality standards as well as how they are represented. Our commitment to quality provides our shop owners and customers a true venue for quality items.

 

While the concept of the virtual mall as a business model is not new, there was still plenty of room for improvement. The owners of Malleries, having valuable insight and experience at other online selling venues, has incorporated the best selling features while discarding or re-vamping and creating other features. We believe it must be easy for our dealers to list their items and for the customer to purchase.

 

The result is simplicity itself. Malleries, with its elegant architecture, streamlined functionality is easily navigated by shopper and shop-owner alike. The look and feel of both the Malleries site as well as the shop administrator is distinctively crisp, clean and devoid of distracting clutter with a tastefully understated approach to Malleries name branding, cohesive, yet not intrusive, allowing the shop-owner a degree of autonomy and name branding. For example the shop logo is always displayed in a prominent location, with supporting pages and a home page that can be customized by the shop owner.

 

Aside from the distinctive look, the other key features within the user-friendly interface include:

1. Sellers who currently have or want to have their own website will enjoy the full benefits of a mall - ease of creation, maintenance and maximum traffic.
    
2. A streamlined point of sale console where the shopper pays for their purchase(s) in a seamless transaction
    
3. Shop owners can accept many forms of payment including credit cards again making it easier for the customer to buy.
    
4. Shop owners sell their items at a fixed price rather than auction format.
    
5. The Shop Administrator, where the shop-owner's "back office" operations are administered such as adding items, uploading of photographs, tracking inventory and sales, etc is also streamlined with user friendly features making it easier to maintain. There is a "back room" feature which allows the shop-owner a holding place for inventory, out of public view.
    
6. Shop owners can elect to send items to auction using the "send to auction" feature, where with just a few clicks of the mouse you can upload your item(s) to eBay quickly and conveniently without having to know html.
    
7. Up to 9 images per item to display on the item page or when uploading to auction at no additional cost, saving both time and money.
    
8. Affordable pricing even for the small shop owner. No Commission, No Contract.

Malleries customers can feel comfortable knowing that each shop owner must successfully pass a screening and approval process, meeting standards of professionalism and ethical conduct as well as quality of inventory.

 

Malleries is positioned as an Antique and Luxury Mall and believes there is a niche market for a tasteful alternative to eBay and the other mall sites, in effect raising the bar with tightened standards of quality control.

 

Ultimately, our goal is that Malleries will become synonymous with quality and THE DESTINATION for the discriminating shopper.
