Where do you source your prints?
In pastimes I would travel the world picking up all sorts of antique prints from various antique and vintage dealers. These days with the internet, I often enter into the world of online shopping. I get lost for hours hunting down prints as I wish to expand the product range!
Where are you located?
We are located on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia.
All Original prints are catalogued, stored and shipped from this region.
Do you ship internationally?
Orders can absolutely be shipped internationally, however shipping rates will vary.
All customs and duty fees will be the responsibility of the customer.
Please refer to our shipping and return page for more information.
How do I know if my print is an ORIGINAL?
You need to be armed with some knowledge when choosing an antique print. There are several pointers which can be seen with the naked eye once you know what to look for.
First, you have to understand the process of producing a print. Feel free to have a read of our blog on this very topic!
Where do I start to collect antique prints?
A great way to start is to visit museums, libraries, and galleries specialising in old prints—places where you know you're looking at the genuine article.
Ask lots of questions of the people who are in the know. Take a look at our blog for some guidance.
Is my delivery insured?
Insurance can be arranged upon request.
Do you sell Reproductions?
We do have some reproductions in our catalogue. These are very clearly marked that they are reproductions and are priced accordingly.
We also sell custom reproduction prints which come in a wide range of sizes and designs!
