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 French portico clock is an architectural timepiece featuring classical columns or pilasters supporting a upper pediment, creating an open framework that houses the dial and pendulum movement.

These timepieces were typically constructed from mahogany or ebonised timber, decorated with gilt bronze or brass mounts, white enamel dials, and metallic pendulum assemblies.

Authentic period clocks feature hand-cut gears, enamel dials with Roman numerals, heavy cast-brass bezels, and specialized mechanical features such as knife-edge suspensions or gridiron pendulums.

A portico clock acts as a focal point when placed on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard alongside modern artwork or contemporary ceramics to create visual contrast.

Keep the casing dust-free using a soft, dry cloth, avoid placing the timepiece near direct heat sources or damp areas, and have the mechanical movement serviced by a qualified horologist every five to seven years.
