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.

A sword stick is a walking cane containing a hidden internal blade, popularised in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as a discreet personal defence item for gentlemen.

They typically feature shafts constructed from lightweight Malacca cane or bamboo, topped with handles made of stag antler, horn, or silver, housing a narrow forged steel blade.

Authentic pieces often showcase period silver hallmarks on the collar, natural age patination on the steel blade, and precise joinery designed to lock the handle securely into the wood sheath.

These items are commonly displayed in a vintage hall stand or mounted alongside other historical canes and walking sticks in an entryway or library setting.

The wooden shaft should be conditioned with microcrystalline wax, while the steel blade requires a thin layer of light oil to prevent oxidisation and rust over time.
