Buy an Illuminated Miniature or Manuscript Leaf
If you’re looking to buy an illuminated miniature, purchase a medieval manuscript leaf, or explore authentic illuminated leaves available for sale, you’re in the right place. I offer a curated selection of illuminated fragments, historiated initials, choirbook leaves and Book of Hours miniatures—each one a standalone work of art. These fragments were painted by hand on parchment, often with gold and vivid pigments, and were once part of grand manuscripts now dispersed across the world. Whether you’re beginning your collection or expanding it, each piece is researched, photographed and offered with care. Many have notable provenance or connections to major collections. Contact me for collecting advice or help sourcing a specific type of miniature or leaf.
