Archival Detail
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.
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.

A tachi is a traditional single-edged Japanese curved sword that predates the standard katana, historically worn suspended with the cutting edge facing downward.

A traditional tachi comprises a hand-forged folded steel blade, a wooden hilt wrapped in ray skin and silk or leather braid, iron or copper fittings, and a lacquered wooden scabbard.

Authentic historical blades feature distinct curvature, grain patterns within the steel, a defined temper line, and patinated unpolished tangs that often bear maker signatures.

A tachi is customarily presented horizontally on a fitted wooden sword stand or mounted securely inside a glass display cabinet to highlight its profile.

Preservation requires regular cleaning with specialized rice paper and application of mineral oil, avoiding bare skin contact to prevent oxidisation from moisture.
