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

Popularised during the nineteenth century in British country houses, floor-standing and tabletop gongs were introduced to signal mealtimes across large domestic residences.

These items were predominantly constructed using dark hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut for the framework, paired with cast brass or bronze for the acoustic suspended disc.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display period-appropriate wood joinery, hand-carved decorative motifs like shell crests or scrollwork, natural aged patina on metal components, and occasionally maker reference stamps.

A floor-standing gong functions well as a focal accent piece in an entrance foyer, hallway alcove, or formal dining space to add historical texture alongside contemporary decor.

Dust the timber framework regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax occasionally to protect the finish, while keeping the suspended metal disc dry to prevent oxidation.
