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

Popularised in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, sword sticks were developed as discreet self-defence weapons for gentlemen when carrying visible swords became socially unacceptable.

Traditional sword sticks were constructed using lightweight woods such as malacca or bamboo for the shaft, forged steel for the concealed blade, and horn, bone, or brass for the handle and ferrules.

Authentic examples often feature hand-etched blade markings, historical maker marks, operational mechanical releases, and age-appropriate oxidisation on the metal components.

These pieces are frequently displayed in a traditional umbrella stand, mounted on a wall display rack within an office or hallway, or placed within a glass cabinet of curiosities.

To preserve the blade, apply a thin layer of microcrystalline wax or mineral oil to prevent rust, store the wooden shaft in a temperature-controlled environment, and avoid abrasive polishes on the handle.
