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.

French Rococo style mantel clocks, popularised during the reign of Louis XV and revived in the 19th century, are characterised by asymmetrical scrolling foliage, rocaille motifs, and elaborate cast metalwork.

These timepieces feature patinated or gilded cast bronze cases, housing mechanical movements with gilt brass dial plates and inset enamel cartouche numerals.

Authentic period movements often feature maker stamps on the movement backplate, such as the circular Japy Freres seal, accompanied by serial numbers and pendulum count wheels.

Position the clock as a focal point on a marble mantelpiece, credenza, or sideboard, balancing its intricate detailing against neutral backgrounds and modern architectural lines.

Dust the case regularly using a soft dry cloth or soft-bristled brush, avoiding chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes that could strip the original surface patina.
