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.

Adopted by the British Army in 1831, the mameluke-style sword was inspired by traditional Egyptian Ottoman sabres brought back to Britain after the Egyptian Campaign. It became the prescribed dress sword for officers of general rank and remains part of modern formal dress uniform.

These swords typically feature forged carbon steel blades, gilt-brass or solid brass scabbards, and grips made from natural materials such as bone, ivory, or synthetic alternatives secured with decorative brass rivets.

Authentic period examples generally display makers marks near the ricasso, detailed blade etchings incorporating royal cyphers, correct gilt brass scabbard construction with dual suspension rings, and appropriate age-related oxidation on metal parts.

Antique swords are traditionally mounted horizontally or vertically on wall brackets above fireplaces, desks, or sideboards. They can also be integrated into framed shadow boxes or displayed on stand mounts within a library or study setting.

Blades should be wiped clean and coated with a thin layer of acid-free microcrystalline wax or light mineral oil to prevent rust. Brass components should be kept dry, and the item stored away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity.
