Archival Detail
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.

During the Edo period, Japanese samurai swords featured refined craftsmanship, distinctive curved steel blades, and decorative scabbards known as saya, reflecting a period of peace and artistic maturity in arms manufacturing.

Authentic pieces incorporate folded steel for the blade, carved wood finished with urushi lacquer for the scabbard, rayskin and silk wrapping for the handle, and iron or bronze for the guard.

Authenticity is determined by examining the construction of the tang under the handle for maker signatures, assessing the folding patterns in the steel, and observing age-appropriate wear and oxidisation on the metal fittings.

Position the piece horizontally on a dedicated wooden stand atop a cabinet or within a glass display unit to highlight its sculptural form and historical patina.

The steel blade requires periodic cleaning with specialized mineral oil to prevent rust, while the lacquered scabbard and handle wrapping should be kept away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity changes.
