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 skeleton clock is a timepiece designed with exposed gear trains and mechanisms, displaying the internal horological engineering rather than concealing it within a solid wooden or metal case.

Victorian skeleton clocks were typically constructed using solid cast and hand-finished brass plates and gears, set upon marble or alabaster bases, and housed under glass protective domes.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-cut brass framing, silvered brass dials with Roman numerals, fusee drive mechanisms, and period-correct marble bases with turned feet.

Position the timepiece as a central focal point on a dark wooden mantelpiece, side table, or open bookshelf to showcase its brass framework against a muted background.

Keep the mechanism covered with a clear glass dome to prevent dust accumulation, clean brass framing using a soft dry cloth without harsh abrasives, and have the internal movement serviced by a professional horologist every five years.
