About Antique Maps
We deal in genuine antique maps, nearly all printed at least one hundred years old, some as much as 500 years old. When they were issued they were at the forefront of human knowledge of the world and as such are as much artefacts as art.
Our maps were created using the traditional printing techniques, including engraving, etching, woodcut, wood-engraving & lithography, before true mass production of images. Their creators knew about the decorative value of their maps and so embellished them with ornamental detail.
We can provide items for customers looking for one special map to decoate their living room or the serious collector.
