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.

This George III longcase clock stands 232 cm high, 54 cm wide, and 25 cm deep, constructed from dark brown mahogany with brass finials and hardware, glass, and a painted metal dial. The Georgian style timepiece displays a swan neck fret pediment with three brass finials, an arched door enclosing a painted moon phase dial with subsidiary seconds and calendar indicators, and fluted full columns flanking the hood. Below, the slender trunk features an arched door with delicate line inlay, resting upon a matching base box with a shaped apron plinth. Positioned in an entrance hall, staircase landing, or principal reception room, this traditional English country house clock brings vertical presence and mechanical interest to a home. The polished timber surface exhibits warm figuring across the door panels alongside subtle historic veneer hairlines and light dial cracklure. The eight-day movement incorporates four knopped pillars and sounds on a bell.

FAQs

Produced during the reign of King George III from 1760 to 1820, these tall case clocks feature mahogany cabinetwork, brass or painted arch dials, and mechanised horological complications such as moon phase indicators.

These timepieces were built using oak frame construction veneered in flame mahogany, adorned with cast brass finials, hand-painted iron dial plates, and boxwood line inlay.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut dovetail joinery, hand-hammered iron weights, weight-driven brass clockwork movements, and original timber patination across the case structure.

Position the clock as a focal architectural element within a grand hallway, stair landing, or formal reception room, using simple backdrop tones to highlight the timber grain.

Position the cabinet away from direct heat and sunlight, apply natural beeswax polish annually, and have the internal mechanical movement serviced by a professional horologist every five to seven years.
