Our collection stands out for its focus on genuine antique pieces with historical significance and artistic value. We don´t specialize in specific regions, but are always looking for good value items of places all over the world. We then sell them quickly, reducing our margin to allow for a faster sale. Together with our low overhead (we are an online only business, saving us the costs of a physical store) and our attempts to have direct sales to clients (saving us the costs of commissions and fees that can reach 20% or more at some platforms), we are capable of offering our items at a very competitive price.

We carefully source our antique maps and engravings from reputable dealers and auctions to ensure their authenticity and quality. With many years of experience in the field, we can safely guarantee the authenticity of each item we sell. We do not sell copies or reproductions. We gladly supply a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) for each item that you purchase, free of charge.

Mapminded started in 2016 out of a passion for cartography as a way to privately collect genuine antique maps from places all over the world. It quickly started growing into an online business, mainly selling through platforms like Catawiki, Ebay and Todocoleccion. Since 2021 it is a formally registered business, fully complying with EU and National rules and regulations, including customer protection in the many thousands of sales that have been made in that period. The website mapminded.eu is a way to be able to offer even more competitive prices to our clients, cutting out the platforms that take commissions from between 10 and upwards of 20% for each sale, before taxes. By buying on Mapminded.eu you save yourself money and help our business become more independent of the large online platforms. Thank you!
