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.

Art Deco modernist clocks from the 1930s are characterised by clean geometric shapes, streamlined contours, bold typography, and modern materials such as chrome, glass, and Bakelite.

Makers frequently combined bevelled or tinted plate glass with polished chrome, nickel plating, brass, or painted metals to create contrasting textures and reflection.

Authentic Smiths timepieces often feature stamped movement housings, maker marks on the dial face, mechanical wind-up mechanisms, and period-accurate typography typical of British horology in the 1930s.

Position the piece as a focal point on a fireplace mantel, sideboard, or executive desk alongside modern minimalist art or architectural ceramics to highlight its geometric lines.

Dust glass panels with a microfibre cloth and clean chrome mounts using a non-abrasive metal polish, ensuring the mechanical movement remains clean, dry, and regularly serviced by a clockmaker.
