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.

Designed in 1842 by King Frederick William IV of Prussia, the Pickelhaube was adopted by Prussian infantry units before spreading across other German states. It remained the standard headwear for military, police, and ceremonial units through the early stages of the First World War until replaced by steel helmets in 1916.

Traditional Pickelhauben were constructed from hardened or boiled leather, shaped and treated with a high-gloss black lacquer. Fittings, including the front crest badge, top spike, spine, and chinstrap mounts, were typically forged from brass, tombak, or silvered alloy.

Authentic period examples display genuine aging on the leather body, original stitching along the visor, and period-correct brass or metal fittings. Inspecting interior maker stamps, unit markings on the rear apron, and natural oxidisation on metal components helps verify authenticity.

Historical headwear is best styled as a focal object within a study, library, or hallway. Mounting the helmet on a wood or brass pedestal display stand inside a glass vitrine or on a sturdy bookshelf adds structure and historical context to traditional or dark academia interiors.

Keep the helmet in a climate-controlled room away from direct sunlight and humidity. Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or excessive leather conditioners, as these can soften aged lacquered leather and strip historical patina from brass fittings.
