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.

Introduced for British infantry officers in the late 18th century, the 1786 pattern spadroon is a lightweight, straight-bladed military sword designed for thrusting and light cutting, characterised by a rigid blade and a distinct hilt configuration.

These sidearms were crafted using high-carbon steel for the blade, often detailed with blued and gilded chemical etching, combined with brass or gilt-bronze hilts, wire-bound grips, and leather scabbards with brass mounts.

Authentic period pieces display hand-forged steel blades, period-correct bluing and gilding on the upper blade surface, age-appropriate patination across the metalwork, and occasionally maker marks near the ricasso.

Antique swords are ideal for display mounted on minimalist wall brackets above a mantelpiece, framed in custom shadow boxes, or styled horizontally along bookshelves in a study or hallway.

Preserve the blade by applying a thin layer of acid-free microcrystalline wax or specialist gun oil, keeping it stored in a low-humidity climate, and handling the metal strictly with cotton gloves to prevent rust from skin oils.
