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.

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.

A tennis racquet barometer is a novelty weather instrument featuring an aneroid gauge set within a carved or constructed wooden frame shaped like a tennis racquet, popular in early twentieth-century sporting clubs and private residences.

These instruments are typically constructed using hardwoods such as oak or walnut for the surround, fitted with a brass bezel ring, glass face cover, and an internal metallic aneroid capsule.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved details or joinery on the timber frame, period dial typography indicating atmospheric pressure changes, and original brass fittings showing natural surface oxidisation.

Mount the object as part of an eclectic gallery wall, accent a home office vertical space, or display it alongside vintage sporting items to introduce texture and historical interest.

Dust the timber casing regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, polish the brass rim gently without liquid cleaners, and avoid hanging the piece in direct sunlight or damp environments.
