WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
Who is Antiquus
Antiquus is an e-commerce site dedicated to facsimile manuscripts and paper works of art created in Italy. Through its website, Facebook page, and YouTube channel, it is a meeting place for enthusiasts, collectors, and scholars.
We collaborate with the most authoritative companies in the sector, chosen for the quality of their publications and attention to detail.
On our website we offer complete facsimile representations of each work: true browsable sculptures, life-size three-dimensional replicas of the original manuscripts.
Each facsimile is designed to faithfully reproduce the actual size, three-dimensionality, weight, texture of the support, chromatic shades, binding, and smell.
The result is a luxurious work, meant to be lived in, displayed, and pampered, the fruit of complex artisanal processes and an entirely Italian supply chain.
A value that is handed down over time.
