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

The Louis XV style in horology emerged during the 18th century and is characterised by asymmetrical curves, Rococo flourishes, acanthus leaf motifs, and extensive use of ornate gilt bronze mounts known as ormolu on veneered timber cases.

These clocks typically incorporate exotic hardwood veneers such as kingwood or rosewood over oak cases, detailed marquetry, mercury-gilded bronze ormolu castings, white enamel dial plates, and brass mechanical movements.

Authentic 19th-century revival clocks feature heavy mercury or fire-gilded bronze castings with hand-chased surface details, precise cabinetwork with natural wood grain variations, and stamped movement markers from recognized Parisian clockmakers.

A pedestal clock functions as an architectural anchor in a grand entrance hallway or drawing room, where its intricate gilt detailing creates a strong historic contrast against minimalist walls or traditional panelling.

Dust gilt bronze mounts lightly with a soft microfibre brush without applying chemical polishes, which strip gilding; keep timber marquetry away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent veneer lifting.
