The Antiquarium

The Antiquarium continues a family tradition of selling original rare maps and antique prints from our historic location in Houston Texas. Our store, located in the Art Deco inspired River Oaks Shopping Center, has been host to independent retailers like us since the 1930s. The Antiquarium was founded in 1990 and seeks to preserve the historic charm of the area while remaining accessible and welcoming to collectors, enthusiasts, and designers at every collecting stage.

As one of the longest running, and last remaining, general antique rare map and print sellers left in the world, our shop contains tens of thousands of original images. Our goal is to offer a less intimidating, and more inviting backdrop to browse our varied and extensive collection of rare maps and prints. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff are always on hand to assist. No question is too mundane or too complex, so please ask.
