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.

A break arch mantel clock features a cabinet top with a curved central arch flanked by flat shoulders, a silhouette popularized during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. These clocks were designed to sit on a fireplace mantel or sideboard as both functional timepieces and decorative focal points.

Traditional examples typically combine flame mahogany or walnut veneers with brass fittings, cast feet, and side carrying handles. The dials often feature enamelled copper or painted metal fitted behind convex glass set within a brass bezel.

Authentic examples display hand-cut joinery, original brass movement mechanisms with winding arbors, and period-appropriate decorative elements like satinwood shell inlays. Natural age patina on the brass and light wear around key winding holes also indicate age.

Position the timepiece on a marble fireplace mantel, bookshelf, or console table alongside framed artwork and contemporary ceramics to create visual balance. The warm wood tones contrast effectively against neutral, muted, or dark backdrop walls.

Dust the casing regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the timber. Ensure the movement is serviced by a professional horologist every few years to maintain key-wound mechanical precision.
