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

Early Georgian longcase clocks, produced during the early-to-mid 18th century, are characterised by figure-walnut veneered cases, brass dials with cast corner spandrels, and eight-day weight-driven mechanical movements.

The cabinetwork typically utilizes an oak carcass veneered with figured walnut or mahogany, while the mechanical movement consists of steel arbors, brass gears, and a cast brass dial plate.

Authentic pieces feature square or arched brass dials with applied spandrels, engraved maker details, hand-cut clockwork gearing, and natural age-related patination across the timber case.

Place the clock as an architectural focal point in an entryway, formal dining room, or stairwell, balancing its traditional timber finish against neutral walls or contemporary artwork.

Keep the wood case in a stable environment away from direct heat sources and sunlight, apply beeswax periodically, and ensure the mechanical movement is serviced by a professional horologist every five to ten years.
