This section brings together our archive of sold other scientific antiques, a historical catalogue comprising instruments for observation, measurement, meteorology, navigation and scientific education that were previously available at Antiguedades.es and are now part of private collections, museums, universities, observatories and scientific institutions. This archive offers the opportunity to discover unusual pieces which, because of their rarity or specialised nature, do not easily fit into other categories of scientific instruments.
Among the objects that have passed through our gallery are antique barometers, barographs, thermographs, anemometers, compasses, sundials, nautical instruments, specimen collections, microscope slides and other scientific devices used during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in laboratories, meteorological stations, educational institutions, observatories, ships and scientific cabinets. Many of these instruments retained their original cases, precision mechanisms, graduated scales, documentation or makers' plates, features especially valued by collectors and historians of science.
This archive illustrates how disciplines such as meteorology, navigation, geography, natural history and scientific education gradually adopted increasingly precise instruments to observe and understand the world. Each piece stands as a testimony to the scientific and technological development of its period.
This archive should be regarded as a historical catalogue of sold other scientific antiques rather than an active sales section. If you would like to browse the pieces currently available, please visit our other scientific antiques for sale, where we regularly add carefully selected scientific instruments.
The pieces preserved in this archive are an excellent source of information for collectors, researchers, teachers and historians of science. They make it possible to compare manufacturers, materials, measuring systems, technical solutions and designs that reflect the evolution of numerous scientific fields between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries.
If any of these instruments serves as a reference for a future acquisition, please feel free to contact us. We will be pleased to let you know whether we have a similar piece available or notify you when a related scientific antique is added to our catalogue.
