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.

A Louis XVI mantel clock typically features symmetrical architectural lines, white statuary marble columns, and chased gilt bronze (ormolu) mounts, often reflecting Neoclassical or Chinoiserie design influences from late 18th-century France.

Antique French clocks of this period traditionally combine carved white marble with mercury-gilded bronze (ormolu) and enamelled copper dials with painted Roman numerals and hand-cut gilt metal hands.

Authentic pieces display hand-chased gilding, countwheel striking movements, hand-lettered enamel dials often featuring Parisian clockmakers names, and threaded metal rods rather than contemporary assembly screws.

Position the clock as a focal piece on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard centre, or library console table, pairing it with neutral backdrop tones to highlight the geometric marble contrast.

Dust regularly using a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth, ensuring no liquid cleaners, water, or abrasive polishes come into contact with the gilt bronze or porous marble surfaces.
