Voigtlander& Sohn Bijou Voigtlander
The Bijou is a small-format plate camera made by Voigtländer & Sohn, dating from the late 19th to early 20th century era of compact folding and strut-type plate cameras. It was positioned as a pocketable instrument for serious amateur photographers when introduced.
Verified UK auction data for the Bijou Voigtländer is extremely thin, with a single recorded hammer result of £2,500 in 2004 at saleroom level (wholesale, excluding commission). On that limited evidence the model sells for a four-figure sum when it surfaces, but today's price for any given example will hinge heavily on completeness, condition, and bidder competition rather than a stable published value.
