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.

Produced primarily during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Georgian longcase clocks are characterized by proportioned cabinetwork, flame mahogany or walnut veneers, and pendulum-driven mechanical movements.

Cabinets were typically constructed using solid oak or pine understructure, faced with mahogany or walnut veneers, while dials featured painted iron or brass plates alongside cast brass movement components.

Authenticity can be verified by examining the movement construction, hand-carved joinery inside the case, period-correct clockmaker signatures on the dial, and natural oxidisation on internal wooden surfaces.

Positioning the clock as an anchor piece in a hallway, foyer, or formal room creates a focal point when contrasted against contemporary neutral backdrops and understated architectural features.

Keep the cabinet in a stable environment away from direct heat sources, ensure the casing rests level on the floor, and have the mechanical movement cleaned and oiled by a professional horologist every few years.
