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

Crossbows were mechanical archery weapons developed in antiquity and widely used across Europe during the medieval and renaissance periods for warfare and hunting.

Traditional crossbows typically feature a dense hardwood stock, a forged iron or steel bow prod, and metallic fittings made from brass or iron.

Authentic pieces display hand-forged metalwork, hand-shaped wood grain showing natural age-related wear, oxidisation on metal components, and period-appropriate joining techniques.

Antique weaponry is commonly mounted horizontally on feature walls, placed within glazed display cases, or positioned above mantelpieces as a statement historical object.

Keep the item in a dry environment with stable humidity, dust the surfaces with a soft cloth, apply microcrystalline wax to protect the wood and metal, and avoid stringing aged bows.
