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.

Popularised during the late nineteenth century, Victorian slate mantel clocks are characterised by heavy black slate casing, architectural proportions, and classical decorative elements such as marble inlays and bronze mounts.

These clocks are constructed from quarried black slate, polished marble trim, cast bronze or spelter ornamental mounts, and a mechanical brass movement.

Authentic pieces exhibit substantial weight due to the solid stone body, incised gilt or painted decoration, twin winding arbors on the dial, and a stamped mechanical movement on the back plate.

Place the clock centrally on a stone fireplace mantelpiece or atop a dark wood sideboard to create a focal point, pairing it with neutral walls or minimalist decorative accents to balance its visual weight.

Dust the stone surfaces regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and clean brass components carefully, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the slate finish or marble sealant.
