Quality Long-case Clock. Thos. Burchall of Nantwich

19th century
For Sale by Masons Antiques
Description

A truly spectacular long-case clock by Thomas Burchall of Nantwich.

The oak case with mahogany cross-banding is principally made from crosscut oak which shows up the medullary rays in the timber and gives a whole new meaning to the term "oak case". It has a beautiful age related patina produced by years of careful waxing and attention. A swan-neck pediment to the hood with tapered, reeded columns to the front. Brass Doric capitals and it's original ball and eagle finial to the top. Gilded paterae.

The trunk with quartered, reeded columns and raised and fielded panel below the door. The base again with raised and fielded panel and standing on ogeed bracket feet.

The arched brass dial has a silvered chapter ring with engraved, black Roman numerals. It has both subsidiary date and seconds dials and a silvered cartouche signed "Fugo Fuge". It has gilded spandrels to the corners and the cartouche and is signed with the makers name.

The 8 day movement strikes on a bell on the hour. It has just been fully overhauled by our BHI registered staff and carries our usual 12mths full parts and labour guarantee.

A very impressive clock.

All cards accepted.

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.

Georgian longcase clocks, produced during the 18th and early 19th centuries, typically feature flame mahogany or oak cases, swan-neck pediments, brass or painted dials, and eight-day pendulum-driven movements.

Cases were predominantly constructed from solid oak or mahogany veneers, while internal movements were crafted from brass and iron, housed behind clear plate glass panels.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-engraved brass spandrels, period maker signatures on the dial centre, cast brass capitals, and original cast iron weights within the trunk.

A longcase clock serves as a strong architectural statement when positioned in a hallway, foyer, or dining room alongside neutral wall tones and contrasting contemporary art.

Maintain stable humidity to preserve the timber case, apply beeswax periodically, and ensure the mechanical movement is professionally cleaned and lubricated every five to seven years.
