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.

An advertising tole clock is a timekeeping device crafted from painted sheet metal, commissioned by commercial brands such as aperitif manufacturers to promote products in French cafes, taverns, and bistros during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

These clocks were typically constructed using pressed or turned sheet iron, also known as toleware, along with painted enamel or card dials, glass covers, and mechanical clockworks housed within durable protective casings.

Authentic examples feature original brand typography, age-appropriate surface wear or oxidisation, hand-painted or transfer-printed details, and mechanical pendulum or key-wound movements appropriate to the historical production period.

Commercial timepieces function as focal points when mounted above a sideboard, positioned within a kitchen dining alcove, or incorporated into an eclectic gallery wall alongside architectural elements.

Preserve painted toleware by dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes, and keeping the item in a stable environment away from excess humidity and direct heat.
