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 Georgian longcase clock features a weight-driven pendulum movement housed within a tall timber case, typically constructed from mahogany or oak, with an arched brass or silvered dial.

These timepieces were built using solid and veneered mahogany or oak for the casing, cast brass for the movement pillars and decorative dial corner spandrels, and steel for components like hands and arbors.

Authentic pieces usually feature hand-engraved brass dials, cast brass spandrels, hand-cut gear teeth, weight-driven movements with multi-pillar construction, and maker signatures on the dial or arch.

An antique longcase clock functions as a focal architectural piece in entrance halls, hallways, or formal reception rooms when positioned against neutral walls to highlight its wood grain and metalwork.

The wooden case should be kept away from direct heat sources and sunlight while being maintained with periodic applications of beeswax, and the horological movement requires routine professional lubrication.
