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.

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

Developed during the eighteenth century, a double-barrel flintlock sporting gun features two parallel barrels fired by flintlock mechanisms, designed primarily for game bird and small game hunting.

These firearms typically combine figured walnut wood stocks with forged iron or Damascus steel barrels, fitted with engraved steel lockplates and brass or silver trigger guards.

Authentic pieces feature period gunsmith maker marks, proof marks beneath the barrels, hand-carved wood stocks, and signature flintlock mechanisms incorporating a cock, frizzen, and pan without percussion conversion.

Mount the item horizontally above a fireplace mantelpiece or within a wood-panelled study or library to serve as a dramatic wall-mounted focal point.

Keep the gun in a climate-controlled environment with low humidity, periodically apply microcrystalline wax to the metalwork to prevent rust oxidisation, and nourish the walnut stock with high-grade beeswax polish.
