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

First developed in France during the early 19th century by Abraham-Louis Breguet, carriage clocks were designed as durable travel timepieces for wealthy commuters and travellers.

Carriage clocks were typically constructed with a solid gilt brass case, clear bevelled glass side panels, a spring-driven mechanical movement, and a white enamel dial with hand-painted numerals.

Authentic late 19th-century French carriage clocks feature heavy brass casings, precise movement stamps on the back plate, a top glass window viewing the platform escapement, and finely bevelled glass plates.

Position the clock on a timber mantelpiece, a curated bookshelf, or an executive desk to add historical structure and metallic warmth to study spaces.

Keep the movement running smoothly with periodic horological servicing every five years, avoid overwinding the mainspring, and wipe brass surfaces gently with a dry microfibre cloth without abrasive cleaners.
