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.

This Victorian gentleman's sword stick dates from the late 19th century and combines a walking cane with a concealed steel blade. The piece comprises a warm brown cherrywood body finished with a polished dark surface, a curved crook handle, an etched inscription near the hilt, and a bright brass ferrule at the base of the shaft. The fullered steel blade extends from the handle via a twist lock release mechanism. Measuring 94 cm high, 14 cm wide and 2 cm deep, this cane is larger than average to accommodate a taller owner. In a modern interior, this item sits appropriately in a study or library, resting upright in a corner or displayed horizontally on a bookshelf as a conversation piece of historical interest. The traditional design complements period rooms, country house interiors and studies furnished with dark woods and leather armchairs. Collectors of antique militaria and Victorian curiosities find it a practical display item that occupies minimal floor space while retaining its original functional mechanics.

FAQs

A sword stick, or cane sword, is a walking stick containing a concealed blade, popular among 18th and 19th-century gentlemen as both a fashion accessory and a discrete self-defence weapon.

These items typically feature shafts made from hardwoods such as cherrywood, bamboo, or malacca, paired with forged steel blades that often bear maker marks or decorative etchings.

Authentic examples usually show age-appropriate wear to the timber, traditional collar fittings, patinated steel blades with period-correct Toledo or Solingen marks, and friction or twist-lock release mechanisms.

It can be styled mounted horizontally on a library wall, displayed within a glass-fronted cabinet, or placed alongside other antique canes in an umbrella stand within a hallway.

Keep the timber shaft conditioned using a natural beeswax polish and apply a thin coat of microcrystalline wax or mineral oil to the metal blade to prevent corrosion.
