We Care about Books

A Passion for Books

Our inventory of books is carefully and lovingly curated by Kitty. In fact our love of books is something we take very seriously, a lifelong passion.

No passing flirtation here, except in a vintage romance book!

Our mission is to share the comforting pleasure of vintage book reading with you and the satisfying tactile sensation of a paper page and a book that seems like a favourite old friend.

Experience

We aspire to make the online book buying experience as close as possible to holding the book in your hand. Clear photographs, an honest and thorough assessment of condition and an interesting insight about each of our Vintage and Antiquarian books so you can decide if it is something you might read, enjoy and treasure.

Classic

Buying a vintage or antiquarian book is a different experience to buying new. Similar to the difference between buying a classic car or a brand new showroom model, each vintage book will have its own quirks and foibles, each and every antiquarian book has it's own character and charm. some may even be the only book of its kind that you will ever find.
