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.

Dinner gongs were introduced to Western country houses during the nineteenth century, adapted from Asian acoustic traditions to announce mealtimes across large domestic residences.

These items typically feature a hand-hammered brass or bronze metal disc suspended within a turned hardwood frame, often constructed from mahogany, oak, or walnut.

Authentic period examples display hand-carved timber joinery, hand-beaten metalwork with minor surface irregularities, and genuine patination across both the wood and metal components.

A standing dinner gong functions as a decorative focal point when positioned on a hallway sideboard, console table, or within a formal dining room or study.

Dust the timber frame using a dry microfibre cloth and apply clear beeswax sparingly, whilst gently wiping the metal disc without stripping its historical patination.
