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

Popularised in the late 19th century, gingerbread clocks are American shelf clocks named for their ornate, press-moulded wooden cases that resemble intricate gingerbread work.

These clocks were typically manufactured using native hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or gumwood, featuring press-moulded relief carvings, brass movements, and decorative glass tablet doors.

Authentic examples feature maker trade marks on the dial face or brass movement, press-carved architectural scrollwork, Roman numeral dials, and swinging pendulum bobs visible through patterned glass panels.

Position the clock centrally on a living room mantelpiece, hallway console, or deep bookshelf to serve as an architectural focal point alongside contemporary ceramics or minimalist artwork.

Keep the wooden clock casing away from direct heat sources and excess moisture, dust the carved surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and have the internal mechanical movement serviced by a horologist every few years.
