The Antiquarian Book Box

Assembled by hand in Edinburgh, The Antiquarian Book Box brings dark academia to life. No two boxes are ever the same—every book has a history, each piece of vintage ephemera is an echo from the past, and bits of arcane knowledge await you inside. What arrives on your doorstep is not just a delivery - it's a discovery.

Each box includes:

  • A hardcover book, 50–200 years old
  • An antique letter, postcard, or map
  • A Houselore-designed bookmark
  • A Houselore-designed Ex Libris bookplate
  • A piece of arcane knowledge
  • A mystery discount for the shop

Every parcel is curated, wrapped, and shipped in Edinburgh - the spiritual home of dark academia and the inspiration for great literature, including Harry Potter, Outlander, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

  • Posts on the 1st of each month
  • Gift subscriptions available
