Antiques by the Sea was founded by Peter Andeweg, passionate dealer, researcher and expert on antique arms and armor. The fascination of antique arms is a true niche within the art market and shows a natural mixture of elegance, mortality and the finest craftsmanship within a culture.

Among those cultures involved are; Europe, Africa, the Islamic world, Asia, Oceania and cross-cultural objects influenced by colonial history or overseas trade. We offer a selective range of oriental, tribal and ethnographic arms and armor which are presented in our seasonal catalogues.

We guarantee a high standard and an honest and reliable approach to our customers, which functions as a fundamental aspect for a long-term relationship.

Antiques by the Sea has provided museums and collectors worldwide to replenish or start their collection over the years and maintains to provide guidance and expertise in research and preservation of cultural heritage.
