Welcome to the Antiquarian Print Shop!

My interest in all things old began at an early age.  I grew up on a farm, money was tight but I was surrounded by pieces of old farm machinery.  I lived with my grandparents and was fascinated by my grandfather, who was blind, telling his many stories of the early days on his sugar cane farm.

Their home was full of “things” that would keep me captivated for hours.  My grandmother was a school teacher and a beautiful dressmaker.  She also was a
great storyteller.  To this day I treasure dearly her silver shoe pin cushion and recall her stories of dressmaking back in the days in the “big” houses.

With the farm having an abundance of memorabilia, I discovered that everything had a story. This has been a theme that has kept me interested for a very long time.

My interest in prints began during a time whilst I lived in Rockhampton, renovating old period homes, called "Queenslanders”.  When it came time to styling, I looked specifically for old prints and discovered this whole new area of collecting which was initially botanical prints.

The discovery of botanical prints led to the discovery of maps of the voyages of our earliest ocean explorers, the botanicals of Australia, the birds, the animals.  The work of people that we learnt about in primary school, like John White, Surgeon General on the first fleet with Captain Arthur Phillips, Sir Joseph Banks....the list goes on and so does the fascination with antique prints as every collection of prints tells a story.

The collection we offer through Antiquarian Print Gallery has been carefully selected. They are of the highest quality, and authenticated through hundreds
of hours of research. They make a great addition to any collector's catalogue or a beautiful work of art to display on the walls of your home.

"My husband and I just moved into our brand new home. I had no idea how to work with such a blank canvas. I was recommended Iris at the Antiquarian Print Shop. She was so kind giving me lots of advice as to what prints would work in various parts of our home. She even gave me the best tips on how to frame the prints I bought. I cannot thank Iris and the team at Antiquarian enough. My new home looks amazing thanks to their help."
