Mechanical Nature
Antiques


 We are full time, knowledgeable and experienced antique dealers and actively and seriously deal in a wide range of antiques and vintage collectibles.  

Our primary focus is on Mechanical and Patented Antiques, Scientific-related Antiques, and Tool &  Technology-related Antiques.  We deal in what is known as Americana, General or Country Store Antiques and Antique Advertising as well.  We like to call all of this "Americana with a Purpose".

Consignment Antique Sales

The way we conduct our antique business has changed from simply trying to buy your antiques fkey4.jpg (18885 bytes)or the lowest possible price, and then reselling them at a profit,  to helping sellers, owners, collectors, spouses, heirs, or other sellers of antiques, sell antiques utilizing the internet, our antique websites, and our expertise and knowledge to the mutual benefit of both parties.

It is a Win-Win for both parties!

We own and operate 2 different antiques websites.  This site  www.Atiqubuyer.com is our informational site, which includes Past Sales Archives and we conduct most of our Antique Sales from our sister website www.Patented-Antiques.com

Our site is one of the largest and best known single owner internet antique sales websites there is.  We have great search engine placement, and hundreds of visitors each day.

For more info about our sites, our search engine rankings and traffic count please see the FAQ page as well as the other informational pages we have on both sites.

Types of Antiques Sought & Sold

We primarily buy, sell, and deal in patented, mechanical, and vintage technology related shaw3.jpg (26125 bytes) antiques and collectibles spanning the era from the mid-1800's and the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution to just after the turn-of-the 20th Century.  General or country store antiques as well as related advertising are sought as well.  We call all of this Americana with a purpose. 

We are actively seeking antique sewing machines
(Pre-1870), American patent models and vintage salesman samples, antique surveying instruments, antique woodworking tools, and many other types of patented and / or mechanical antiques, related advertising, country store antiques, and what is commonly referred to as Americana from this era.

This would include antique pressing irons or sadirons, early patented eggbeaters, mechanical apple parers, 2 wheel coffee mills, cast iron coffee grinders, and other Antique Typewriter kitchen and general store related antiques. 

We sell antique and vintage tools, early office antiques, antique surveying instruments and related antique scientific equipment, as well as many other occupational and technological antiques from the home, workshop, store, farm, or office. 

The antiques we seek include early electric fans and antique electric motors,antique typewriters, early telephones and telegraph devices, antique toys, vintage sporting goods, and much more. 

Gurley Solar Transit We are also looking for antique figural cast iron pieces, antique lawn sprinklers, early corkscrews, unusual calculating devices and slide rules, plus related ephemera, catalogs and advertising.

Unlike the current crop of antique shows, and what is offered in "antique shops" where it seems 20 years is now deemed to be an antique, we still hold to the definition of an antique as being something close to 100 years old or more.  Newer things might be collectible, but things from 1988 typically do not fit into omcclure.jpg (29081 bytes)ur sales categories. 

For a good overview and specific information on the different categories of antiques, vintage technology, scientific related antiques, antique advertising and collectibles we are interested in CLICK any of the headings in the left column.

To see many examples of Past Sales please visit the Sales Archive Pages  to see specific  antiques we typically deal in.
