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.

Developed in France during the early nineteenth century, carriage clocks were portable, spring-driven timepieces designed for wealthy travellers to maintain accurate time while on journeys.

Authentic carriage clocks are constructed primarily from cast brass or gilt bronze, fitted with bevelled glass panels, enamel dials, and steel movement components.

Genuine examples typically feature heavy cast brass construction, glass viewing panels, French maker stamps or serial numbers on the back plate, and balance wheel escapements rather than pendulums.

Position the timepiece on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk alongside structured accessories like leather-bound books or brass desk accoutrements to complement both traditional and modern schemes.

Dust the exterior regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that strip original lacquers or gilding. Mechanical movements should be serviced by a professional horologist every five to seven years.
