Übernahme des Hauses Cérès

Dear fellow Collectors,

2026 promises to be a banner year for LE TIMBRE CLASSIQUE: we are taking over the brand and clientele of one of the leading auction houses, CERES PHILATELIE, founded in the aftermath of the Second World War, which closed its operations with an impressive final special sale – its 200th mail sale on October 21, 2025.

LE TIMBRE CLASSIQUE is therefore very honoured to have been chosen to continue the work of this prestigious firm.

Moreover, most philatelists who still have lots on consignment with CERES PHILATELIE have already indicated that they will be transferring them to our upcoming auctions or mail sales.

We would be delighted to have you among them as well.

We wish you all the best for 2026 and remain at your disposal.
