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.

FAQs

First developed in France during the early nineteenth century, carriage clocks are portable spring-driven timepieces designed for travel, featuring a carrying handle, glass panels, and rectangular brass cases.

Traditional French carriage clocks are constructed primarily from cast brass or gilt bronze, featuring bevelled glass side panels and a white enamel dial with Roman numerals.

Authentic pieces by makers such as Drocourt often feature stamped maker marks or serial numbers on the back plate, precise movement construction, high-grade gilt finishes, and fine bevelled glass glazing.

Place the timepiece on a fireplace mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk alongside curated contemporary accessories to create a refined contrast between historic brass craft and modern design.

Dust the exterior gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid aggressive metal polishes which can strip original gilding; internal mechanical movements require professional servicing by a horologist every few years.
