Arms, armor and weapons harken back to history and have the power to transport viewers to another era. Every civilization has had its history of warfare directly influenced by the design of its arms, armor and weapons.
Although designed to be functional, antique and vintage arms, armor and weapons can add gravity to a room when they are displayed. Their beauty stems from their raw utilitarianism. More ornate and decorative pieces can bring elegance to a space. Neoclassical arms can add a little culture and excitement to your home. Some pieces are made of precious metals, such as gold or silver, and can incorporate engraving, encrusting or painted details.
It is common for armor to be displayed in studies, libraries and dens where the historical value of these pieces is given space for contemplation and can complement the mood of such a room. There are plenty of excellent case-piece options that allow for collections to be stored and presented in a tasteful, organized way. (Any furnishing that is unupholstered and has some semblance of a storage component may be properly termed a case piece.)
Browse 1stDibs for collectible antique and vintage arms, armor and weapons to display in your home. There are historically accurate pieces ranging from ancient weapons to more modern designs.
