Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Sword sticks, also known as cane swords, originated as functional accessories for gentlemen in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, serving as concealed personal defence weapons when carrying open sidearms became socially unacceptable.

Traditional construction paired hollowed bamboo or timber shafts with narrow steel blades, reinforced by brass collars and ferrules to prevent the organic outer material from splitting under pressure.

Authentic pieces feature age-appropriate wear around brass fittings, hand-forged steel blades displaying subtle oxidation, and authentic hand-carved relief work following natural grain variations in the wood.

These items are ideal for displaying horizontally across bespoke wooden stands on a bookshelf, mounted within a glazed display case, or integrated into a curated wall arrangement of vintage curios.

Keep the bamboo shaft in a climate-controlled environment away from direct heat to prevent cracking, and apply a thin layer of mineral oil or microcrystalline wax to the steel blade to prevent rust formation.
