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 crystal regulator clock is a style of horological mantel timepiece developed in France during the late nineteenth century, characterised by a brass frame with four bevelled glass panels exposing the internal movement and pendulum.

These timepieces typically feature brass or bronze gilded frames, bevelled glass panels, porcelain or enamel dials, and temper-compensated mercury or faux-mercury pendulums.

Authentic period examples often display maker stamps on the rear brass movement plate, hand-enamelled dials with Roman numerals, heavy bevelled glass, and twin-tube pendulums.

Positioning a brass regulator clock on a contemporary fireplace mantelpiece or console table creates a focal point that contrasts warm metallic tones against modern minimalist backdrops.

Glass panels should be cleaned using a microfibre cloth, while brass surfaces should be kept free of dampness to prevent excessive oxidisation, with mechanical movements serviced by a qualified horologist every five years.
