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

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

Authentic period pieces typically feature heavy brass or gilt bronze framing, bevelled glass panels, and wooden or enamelled dials housing complex mechanical brass movements.

Authenticity is determined by examining the hand-engraved serial numbers on the backplate, the quality of the escapement, maker signatures, and the presence of hand-bevelled glass panes.

Position the timepiece on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or side table to introduce traditional craftsmanship and functional elegance to a contemporary living space.

Keep the clock away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations, and have the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years to ensure proper functioning.

Carriage clocks originated in 19th-century France as portable timepieces designed for travellers, military officers, and nobility to carry during journeys.
