Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

Developed in the early nineteenth century, carriage clocks were portable timepieces created for travellers to keep accurate time on long journeys, housed in sturdy metal frames with carrying handles.

Traditional carriage clocks feature gilt brass or bronze casing, bevelled glass panels on multiple sides, enamelled dials with Roman numerals, and steel mechanical clockwork.

Authentic period examples exhibit heavy gilt brass construction, hand-engraved scrollwork, visible platform escapements through top glass panels, and fine enamel work free from printed graphics.

Position the clock on a fireplace mantelpiece, executive writing desk, or dark wooden bookshelf alongside leather-bound volumes and metallic accent objects.

Dust the brass casing gently with a soft dry cloth, avoid harsh chemical polishes that strip gilding, and have the mechanical escapement lubricated periodically by a qualified horologist.
