Store description

De Vergulde Kat is a small, independent bookseller based in the north of the Netherlands. We live among the art we collect, and our books are part of that home: art books, exhibition catalogues, art magazines and literature on ethnographic and non-Western art. We specialise in titles that are hard to find: out-of-print catalogues, limited editions and reference works sought after by collectors, dealers and researchers. Every book is handled personally, checked page by page and described honestly, with any flaws clearly stated. Our photos show the actual copy you will receive. Books are carefully packed in sturdy, protective packaging and shipped worldwide with tracking. Larger or more valuable items are always sent insured. Questions about a title, its condition or additional photos? Send us a message and we will gladly help.…
