Dealers Notes

**************************************

Shipping

Other than a few smaller items that can be safely posted, nearly all items are hand delivered (and set up in the case of clocks) by Martin Bros who are one of Britain’s most prestigious carriers of antiques and fine art. I wish us avoid the hassle of cheap men and their vans! The standard (subsidised) delivery price shown is for mainland UK excluding Scotland. Please ask for a Quotation where the standard price is not applicable.

**************************************

Restoration and Presented Condition

I do not subscribe to the shabby chic or make it like new approach using modern materials which can make future restoration extremely difficult and impede long-term investment value.

Any restoration work is done to the highest (museum) standards using traditional materials so as to not compromise the patina of age.

Accordingly, please note some antique items for sale will have wear and marks associated with use over many generations that adds to the aesthetic beauty of the piece from the collector’s perspective.

**************************************

Fine Art - Condition

All Paintings offered have been chosen for their excellent original condition, with where necessary museum standard cleaning, restoration and revarnishing. Presented in Gallery condition they are ready to hang for many generations, before cleaning / revarnishing may be necessary.

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.

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.
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.

During the late Qing Dynasty in the 19th century, Chinese silversmiths crafted decorative items for export to Western markets, combining traditional motifs such as dragons with European functional forms like walking canes.

Canes from this era frequently feature polished hardwood shafts, silver or gold-plated collars, and handles or pommels fashioned from carved wood, tagua nut, bone, or horn.

Authentic items typically feature hand-chased relief decoration, such as dragons or bamboo foliage, and often bear character marks alongside silversmith initials stamped into the silver collar.

Antique canes can be displayed upright within a brass or ceramic umbrella stand in an entryway, or mounted horizontally in a glazed wall cabinet within a study or hallway.

Dust the wood shaft regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and polish the silver collar gently with a dedicated silver cloth to control tarnish without removing the dark patina in the carved recesses.
