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

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

Miniature desk cannons originated during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, frequently crafted as signal guns, paperweights, or apprentice pieces demonstrating precise foundry and metalworking skill.

Antique model cannons were typically constructed from cast bronze, brass, or iron for the barrels, mounted upon carriages fashioned from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, teak, or oak.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples feature hand-machined fixings, original patination on the metal components, and hand-finished wooden carriages exhibiting period-appropriate joining techniques.

These decorative objects function as focal points on an office desk, library bookshelf, or fireplace mantelpiece, introducing historical texture to traditional or eclectic interiors.

Metal components should be dusted regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, whilst wooden carriages benefit from periodic applications of natural beeswax polish to protect the finish.
