“Hatchwell Antiques is a treasure trove of the unexpected. Our stock is split into four areas of expertise: Aeronautical, 20th Century, Optics and Classical. Come and visit us or view our online shop. Grown from a passion for pioneering design and superior engineering we have become the leading supplier of highly sophisticated models of aeronautical and space development. Many pieces are of scientific and historical importance, designed by leading industrial designers and aeronautical specialists of their day. Many pieces remain in their pure state such as wind tunnel and concept models and others are adapted to create practical interior furnishings.
