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.

Developed in France during the early nineteenth century by horologists such as Abraham-Louis Breguet, carriage clocks were designed as robust portable timepieces for travellers. They typically feature a rectangular brass frame, glass viewports, and a carrying handle to protect the internal escapement during journeying.

Classic carriage clocks feature heavy brass cases, often gilded or polished, alongside bevelled glass panels that allow visibility of the movement. The dials are generally crafted from white enamel over copper, set with blued steel hands.

Authentic period examples often display maker marks or stamps on the back plate, original platform escapements visible through the top glass window, and heavy, solid brass construction rather than lightweight plated alloys.

Position a brass carriage clock on a fireplace mantelpiece, desk, or curated bookshelf to introduce metallic warmth and historic texture. Pairing the timepiece alongside structured books or modern ceramics balances classic craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics.

Dust the case regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid using harsh chemical polishes that can strip original lacquer or patination. Mechanical movements require periodic servicing by a qualified horologist every five to seven years to ensure smooth operation.
