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

A blunderbuss is a short-barrelled muzzleloading firearm featuring a flared muzzle, historically designed to scatter shot at close range.

Traditional blunderbusses were crafted using dense hardwoods such as walnut for the stock, combined with steel, iron, or brass for the barrel and lock mechanism.

Authenticity is identified through gunsmith makers marks, period-accurate firing mechanisms such as flintlock or percussion systems, authentic patina on metal components, and historical wear patterns on the wooden stock.

Interior designers frequently mount antique firearms on walls above mantels or sideboards, or display them mounted on bespoke stands within library shelving units.

Wood stocks require microcrystalline wax polish to prevent drying, while iron and steel components require light applications of mineral oil to prevent oxidisation.
