VICTORIA QUATE ANTIQUARIAN BOOKS & CURIOSITIES 

Victoria Quate is a boutique antiquarian bookshop curating curious artefacts & printed oddities, pieces with history, charm, and a certain unnameable magic. Whether you're a collector, a gift-giver, or someone who simply can't resist the pull of a dusty bookshelf, there's something here for you.

We specialise in rare, out-of-print, and unusual books, comics, and ephemera relating to romanticism and gothic fiction, myths & legends, folklore, occultism, spiritualism, art and science. From 19th-century poetry to mid-century children’s tales, from haunting chapbooks to hand-coloured prints, each piece is chosen for its story, its style, or its strangeness.

Many of our pieces are valued as much for their visual or material beauty such as the feel of the paper, the faded ink and the foxed pages as for their textual contents.

Named in memory of someone small but important, this shop is about more than commerce. It's about connection, between past and present, between people and the printed page.

Please enjoy browsing the collection and if something speaks to you, or you're looking for a specific subject, please feel free to get in touch.
