At Rare Illustrated Books, we see books as beautiful, tactile
objects, as wondrous amalgamations of art + design. Our philosophy is
focused on promoting the book as a work of art.

We specialise
in interesting books, art books, architecture and design books,
photobooks and children's books. Our stock is selected from around the
world and includes limited editions, original photographs, drawings,
watercolours, paintings, and ephemera.

Rare Illustrated Books has grown rapidly to become one of the best-known
specialist dealers in the Southern Hemisphere.


We enjoy close working
relationships with our clients, private collectors, libraries and
institutions, and take pleasure in the opportunity to find books, expand
libraries, view and bid at auction, and also offer guidance in relation
to restoration, conservation and insurance. Printed catalogues are
issued annually.
