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 Georgian longcase clock, produced between 1714 and 1830, is characterised by its tall wooden cabinet housing a pendulum movement. These timepieces typically feature brass or painted dials, architectural hoods with pediments, and fine timber construction such as oak, mahogany, or walnut.

The cabinets were primarily constructed from solid oak or pine carcass wood veneered with figure mahogany, walnut, or fruitwood. Movements were made of brass plates and steel gears, while dials transitioned from cast brass spandrels in the early 18th century to painted iron sheets by the late 18th century.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut dovetail joinery, hand-forged movement components, and age-consistent oxidation on timber and metal surfaces. The dial signature often reveals regional makers, and the proportion of the trunk to the hood reflects specific regional and chronological styles.

Position a longcase clock as a vertical focal point in a hallway, stairwell landing, or formal reception room. Pairing traditional timber cabinetry with neutral walls, contemporary artwork, or modern lighting balances classic horology with contemporary aesthetic schemes.

Position the clock on a level floor away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber movement. Mechanical movements require specialist cleaning and lubrication by a horologist every five to seven years to ensure accurate timekeeping.
