Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

A perpetual calendar is a mechanical or manual device designed to display the correct date for any given month and year. Popularised in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these items served as durable, reusable desktop tools for offices and studies.

Traditional perpetual calendars typically feature solid wood bases such as mahogany or oak, combined with brass, nickel, or silver-plated frames and printed paper or celluloid date cards.

Authentic period pieces generally display natural oxidisation on the metal frame, soft wear on the timber base, and period-appropriate serif typography on the original month and date inserts.

Position the calendar on an office desk, console table, or bookshelf alongside vintage leather-bound books and traditional brass lighting to establish a classic study aesthetic.

Dust the timber plinth regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply clear beeswax to preserve the wood polish, while taking care not to use harsh chemical cleaners on the brass.
