BACKGROUND
SANDTIQUE Rare, Antique Prints is a Husband & Wife team (Tom & Sandra) located in Jacksonville, Florida, in the northeast corner of the State. The name "SANDTIQUE" is a combination of "Sandra" and "antique".
PRINTS
We have been collecting antique prints for about 35 years and some would say that it has become an obsession. It all started with the purchase of a box of prints at an auction. For the low price we paid, we ended up with a lot of lovely antique wall art.
We currently have over 8,500 prints listed for sale on E-Bay on our site SANDTIQUE-Rare-Prints.com and plan to have over 10,000 prints up within the next few months. The prints range in price from $1.88 to $995. All are guaranteed to be genuine antiques, 100 years or more in age and produced prior to 1911, unless otherwise stated.
SPECIALTY
Although we are generalists and sell most kinds of antique prints and maps, we specialize in hand-colored antique prints and chromolithograph prints. We love the vivid colors in these prints and appreciate the amount of manual labor and skill that went into their making.
In terms of categories, we specilize in Antique Heraldry Prints (look for your family coat of arms), Antique Portrait Prints (look for a picture of your great-grandfather or great uncle) and Antique City & Country Scene Prints (look for a steel engraving print of your town from the 1800's) and Botanical Prints. We also specialize in "Old Master Prints from 1,500 to 1,800.
PRICING
We try to price our prints at 30% to 50% less than the price of other Internet websites (domestic & international). In any case, SANDTIQUE offers its "Lowest Price Guarantee" : Find an identical print on the Internet at a lower price than ours and we will match the price and give you an extra 10% discount. Please note that we have had no payouts yet.
We also believe in "volume discounts" for those buying more than one print. If you buy one, you pay a flat rate for shipping of $3 in the U.S. and a flat rate of $6 for anywhere else in the world. If you buy 2, 3,or 4 prints, the additional prints ship for free. If you buy 5 or more prints at one time, worldwide shipping is totally FREE !.
GIFTS
Our prints make wonderful gifts, either for somebody else or if you are a collector, for yourself. Think about giving five or more prints to someone in another country and we will ship them for free. We will even enclose a card if you ask in an e-mail.
