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

Popularised during the 18th and 19th centuries, sword sticks were carried by gentlemen as discreet self-defence weapons when open street brawling declined and carrying sidearms became social taboos. They concealed a steel blade inside a hollowed walking stick or rattan cane shaft.

High-grade sword sticks often used shafts made from Malacca cane, bamboo, or dense hardwoods. Handles were fashioned from materials such as bone, horn, or ivory, secured with sterling silver or brass collars, housing steel blades that were forged or etched.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-etched or forged steel blades showing natural patination, silver collars bearing makers marks or hallmarks, and a secure push-button or friction locking mechanism at the neck joint rather than modern screw threads.

These historical items are best showcased in a hall stand beside an entryway, wall-mounted within a bespoke shadow box frame, or rested horizontally across a desk or library shelf alongside other historical collectables.

Keep the steel blade lightly oiled with mineral oil to prevent rust and oxidisation. The natural wood or cane shaft should be kept away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking, while silver elements can be gently burnished with a soft microfibre cloth.
