ABOUT US

WHAT WE DO

BEAUX BOOKS is an independent bookseller specialising in fine and rare books on the art and culture of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Our focus is on the artists, photographers, designers, makers, writers and performers who have shaped our cultural world since 1900.

The shelves are stocked with a curated selection of established classics and new discoveries, as well as unique, signed and ephemeral items.

Every one of our books offer a feast for the eye and the mind.

WHO WE ARE

BEAUX BOOKS is based in the historic village of Hartley Wintney, in North Hampshire, England.

We operate across the globe, shipping books domestically and internationally on a daily basis.

We issue regular book lists and catalogues, and exhibit at major book fairs throughout the year.

“I founded Beaux Books in 2012, with 18 years of rare book-selling experience behind me. Since 1994 I have handled thousands of books and have built up an extensive knowledge of books on art and culture. I love working hand-in-hand with dealers, designers and personal clients to develop their collections and build their libraries.”
