Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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 blunderbuss is a short, large-calibre firearm featuring a flared muzzle, designed for close-range defence on naval vessels and stagecoaches during the eighteenth century.

These firearms typically feature a cast brass or iron barrel, a steel flintlock ignition mechanism, and a full-length stock carved from dense hardwoods such as walnut or oak.

Period pieces display gunsmith or proof marks near the breech, natural oxidisation on the brass and timber, and hand-forged steel lock components.

A blunderbuss functions as a focal display piece when mounted above a mantelpiece, placed inside a glazed cabinet, or presented on a feature wall within a study or library.

Store the firearm in a stable environment to avoid timber distortion, wipe metal elements using a clean dry cloth, and apply microcrystalline wax to protect the brass barrel and wooden stock without disrupting the natural patina.
