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.

Art Deco clocks from the 1930s feature geometric shapes, bold numerals, and modern materials like tinted glass and polished metals. They reflect the modernist aesthetic and technological advancements of the interwar era, prioritising streamlined forms.

Manufacturers frequently combined mirrored or tinted sheet glass with brass, chrome, or Bakelite components. Electric synchronous movements became popular, housed in sleek, low-profile brass or metal frames.

Authentic pieces often bear maker marks on the dial face or movement casing alongside period-correct geometric typography. Early electric models typically feature original synchronous movements and characteristic Art Deco font styling on the chapter ring.

Position the clock on a marble fireplace mantel, dark wood sideboard, or structured shelving unit to highlight its geometric silhouette. Pairing it with brass accents or monochrome decor enhances its visual contrast without cluttering the space.

Clean the glass panel with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth and specialised glass cleaner applied to the cloth rather than the surface. Brass components should be gently wiped to maintain patina, while electrical wiring should be inspected by a qualified electrician before use.
