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

A French clock garniture is a decorative set comprising a central mantel timepiece flanked by a matching pair of side ornaments, such as urns, vases, or candelabra. The concept gained widespread popularity in France during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to ornament grand mantelpieces.

These sets are crafted from porcelain glazed in characteristic colours, such as cobalt blue, decorated with hand-painted enamel reserves. They are mounted with cast, chased, and gilded bronze, commonly known as ormolu.

Authentic pieces display heavy, hand-chased cast bronze mounts, fine fire-gilding with subtle wear on high points, and hand-painted artwork rather than modern transfer prints. Movements often feature French maker stamps or serial numbers stamped into the back plate.

Place the three-piece set symmetrically on a fireplace mantelpiece, grand sideboard, or hallway console table. The central clock serves as the focal point, while the flanking urns balance the arrangement.

Dust the surfaces gently using a soft, dry cloth or a fine-bristled brush to reach recessed metalwork. Avoid chemical cleansers, water, or abrasive polishes, as these can strip original gilding and damage delicate hand-painted porcelain glazes.
