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

These clocks typically feature detailed bronze or brass sculptures depicting historic, romantic, or mythological figures mounted above or beside a clock movement. Popular throughout the 19th century, they served both as functional timepieces and decorative status symbols for interiors.

They are primarily constructed from cast bronze or brass treated with gilt coating (ormolu), often combined with white or dark marble, alabaster, and white enamel dials featuring hand-painted Roman numerals.

Authentic examples feature precise metal chasing on the gilded casing, heavy cast components, enamel dials, and circular brass movements often stamped with maker marks, serial numbers, or medals on the back plate.

Positioning the clock as a focal element on a fireplace mantelpiece, marble console table, or dark timber sideboard creates a structured accent that balances contemporary minimalist decor with classic texture.

Dust gently using a soft microfibre cloth or soft bristle brush, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers or excess water that can degrade original gilding; internal pendulum mechanisms should be regularly serviced by a professional horologist.
