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 grandmother clock is a freestanding, weight-driven pendulum clock that features a slender, scaled-down case typically standing under six feet in height, distinguishing it from larger grandfather clocks.

These clocks typically feature wooden cases finished with dark lacquer or japanning, detailed with hand-painted gold leaf or brass-powder motifs, and fitted with brass dial plates and internal clockwork mechanisms.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-applied japanned lacquer techniques, natural age-related craquelure or light oxidisation on metal fittings, and hand-engraved brass components rather than modern cast reproductions.

Position the clock as a focal piece against neutral walls to highlight the dark lacquer and gilded detail, balancing the traditional form with contemporary furniture silhouettes.

Keep the clock away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting gently with a soft dry microfiber cloth without applying solvent-based polishes or water.
