This website is for people interested in Historic British Butterflies / Moths and their preservation.

My aim is to provide a quality service, information and help to raise standards for the preservation and presentation of Lepidoptera collections to ensure they are preserved for the future.

If you have a collection or just a few specimens for sale, I would be interested in giving you a free of charge evaluation for your consideration.

  • I would either need to visit the collection or view your photographs.
  • If you require a specific historic specimen, I may be able to acquire that for you.
  • I consider all sizes of collections of entomology, taxidermy and all associated natural history items. 

I buy and sell

  • Full entomology collections
  • All types of entomological books, cabinets, storage boxes and drawers

  • I can also provide a full restoration service for cabinets, and can reline with cork or Plastazote to customers requirements.
  • Grading of collections, restoration, resetting and repining of specimens.
