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

These pieces typically reflect the traditional craftsmanship of the region, combining local wood turning with regional metalwork techniques such as chased or niello silver decoration.

Sticks from this era usually feature a dense hardwood shaft, such as ebony or stained fruitwood, fitted with a hallmarked or unmarked silver top and a brass or horn ferrule at the base.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the natural patina on the wood, the hand-worked details on the metal pommel, and signs of genuine age-related wear and oxidisation on the tip and handle.

Displaying vintage canes grouped in a heavy ceramic or metal umbrella stand adds a touch of traditional character to an entrance hall or study.

Preserve the condition by keeping the item away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, occasionally treating the wooden shaft with microcrystalline wax to prevent drying.
