Archival Detail
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.

Louis XVI style mantel clocks are distinguished by neoclassical symmetry, geometric marble bases, and ornamentation derived from classical antiquity, such as urns, foliage, and sculpted allegorical bronze figures.

These clocks typically feature bases crafted from carved white or coloured marble, adorned with mercury-gilded bronze (ormolu) mounts and patinated dark bronze sculpted figures, housing brass pendulum movement mechanisms.

Authentic pieces often feature a circular medallion stamp from Vincenti & Cie struck into the brass movement plate on the reverse, alongside hand-chiseled ormolu detailing and heavy cast-bronze components.

Position the clock centrally on a stone fireplace mantelpiece, marble sideboard, or dark wood console table, flanked by minimalist modern art or symmetry-balancing ceramics to create a focal point.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth or feather duster; avoid abrasive cleaners, water, or chemical solvents on gilded or patinated bronze areas, and clean white marble using dedicated pH-neutral stone cleaners.
