Our Story

Over a decade of global antique expertise — now bringing buyers directly to the source

Our Beginning

Born from Experience

Over The Pond Antique Tours was started in 2025, building on the back of over a decade of buying and selling antiques across the globe.

We understand that sourcing antiques and collectables in the UK can be quite daunting. That's why we created a cost-effective, guided buying experience that gives you the opportunity to source, ship, and retail on with the minimum of fuss.

Based in historic Lincoln with its stunning cathedral built in 1072, we provide the perfect base to explore England's finest antique venues.
