Customer Reviews

"Very glad to have got these increasingly hard-to-get ribbons from such an honest, polite, quick-to-respond seller as Bilyana. Brilliant maintenance kit and brilliant typewriter mats that go well with all the colours of typewriter I have and that really dampen the noise of typing, as well as protecting the surface underneath very well."

"All of us can sell something, but only a few can do that with passion and care. My experience with Antiques Fine Arts...AWESOME!"

"Holy...wow, what a machine and the degree of cleanness and restoration, just amazing. It is in a pristine state... THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO DETAIL, that is what separate the wanna be and the pros...You made a difference in my life by being authentic, long life to your enterprise."

"Bilyana put a lot of care in restoring, packing and shipping this splendid Olympia Splendid 66 Typewriter. It arrived in a very carefully packed manner, with several layers of bubble wrap. Bilyana also added an extra ribbon and a cute maintenance kit to the pack, on top of a nice card and kind message. The typewriter looks like brand new, despite the many years and lives it certainly has. Couldn't be happier!! Communication with Bilyana was also always transparent and very courteous. Couldn't be happier! Thanks!!"

"I love my antique Royal typewriter from Bilyana. It’s in immaculate condition for its age & works really well. I look forward to using it for my projects & am so happy with my purchase. Bilyana made sure the typewriter was well packaged with great care for its long journey & was excellent with regards to her communications with me. Regularly checking in with me to keep me updated on delivery. I highly recommend this Etsy seller & would happily buy from this store again. Thank you Bilyana 🙏"

The silicone-feet were easy to install

The silicone-feet were easy to install, and the have a nice friction which keeps the typewriter in place.

The diameter of the spools are maybe 2-3mm too large for the metal-cased Hermes baby

The diameter of the spools are maybe 2-3mm too large for the metal-cased Hermes baby. I respooled to a pair of original metal-spools.

For another typewriter, I would maybe try and trim them with a knife or some sandpaper.

The ribbon and ink is as expected.

Der Knopf passt perfekt! Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Beratung und auch mit den Produkt. Die lieferung war auch schnell. Alles perfekt! .Lieben dank und liebe Grüße aus Wien!

Top quality

At so affordable price there is no reason to scrudge on real rubber feet for the machine. Typing experience dramatically improved!
And they look so fantastic!
Really well done! I know the effort it took is far more than the price I paid! Well worth!

Nieuwe voetjes.

Afgelopen week de nieuwe voetjes voor mijn Torpedo 18 uit 1960 besteld.
Bestelling werd vlot en netjes afgeleverd en de voetjes zijn echt van een prima kwaliteit rubber met perfecte pasvorm.
Doordat het nieuwe rubber van de voetjes weer flexibel is geven ze de typemachine meer grip maar ook meer demping op mijn bureaublad.
Echt heel erg de moeite waard kan ik zeker aanbevelen.

Just perfect. Really helpful when using your typewriter. It is far more dun to use it with this mat.

Fits my Empire Aristocrat perfectly

Perfect cover for my Empire Aristocrat

Perfect cover for my Empire Aristocrat. I've had a few of various sizes and they are always of good quality and always posted out quick.

The transparent dust cover is ideal to protect my typing babies but still, I can enjoy looking at them - this item is just perfect. The order came so well packed, I kept even the wrapping paper for some inspiration :) Big thanks to the shop owner, they have been very helpful and very friendly!

Wonderful typewriter cover, beautifully packaged with great care, perfect condition and worth the price.

An outstanding item cover served as an outstanding cover for a recently purchased portable Continental. Look forward to the typewriter and cover for many years to come. Thank you very much for your great product and I recommend Amsterdam Typewriter strongly for others considering items from you!

I'm finally rid of that excess vibration and noise.
A mat that makes all the difference.
I recommend it without hesitation.

Great quality, quick shipping, nice communication, even a little gift. This is how it should be done.

This is the second one I got, very well made and very practical. I love it and I recommend it a lot. For an Olivetti Lettera is a bit too tight but still it works ok!

arrived in great condition, in a timely manner.

Great quality, and you really see it when having this pad in your hands. It works perfectly for under the typewriter, probably I will order another one of those. And true, the packaging looks like a pizza box which created some high expectations for my hus receiving the post :D

It is really good for me

Fijne mat voor onder de typemachine. Past daarnaast ook prima onder een lockmachine.

Works very well with a Hermes Baby. Dimensions are the same as the original. Glad shops like these still sell ribbon for typewriters.

As described. Fits great in the typewriter

Basically the platen knob replacement was the correct size. It was meant to be glued on. I know that the gluing process would not handle the torque requirements of its functions.
Fortunately I was able to find another replacement knob that was attached to a metal collar with two set screws to which the platen knob was attached. It was quite sturdy and would handle the torque requirements of its functions.

Heel blij mee als ondersteuning voor mijn typemachine. Heb er wel zelf nog wat antislip materiaal onder gelegd. Nu staat mijn typemachine als een huis en kan de droomfabriek op volle toeren draaien.
