Antique Guilloche Enamel “Travel Clock/pocket Watch Case/stand

1900 - 1920
Description

A rare opportunity to acquire an exquisite bright yellow quilloche enamel travel clock/pocketwatch case.

The rear of the face planet has clear grooves for the timekeeper and it has a pinchbeck which the clock/watch can be suspended from.

This dates to 1929 manufactured in Birmingham and clearly hallmarked on each component part.

The base metal is silver and externally the silver is still very much visible.

Internal surfaces have been gilded and indeed the face panel has been engine engravednina sunburst pattern.

The enamel has one piece of slight surface damage, by which the surface has been clipped removing a very small section of upper varnish. But the actual enamel has not been damaged or removed.

I have photographed to show this

I hung a pocket watch within the face to demonstrate useage. The pocket watch is not included in this sale.

The overall dimensions are 3x3inches .the surfaces are both slightly convex and therefore the overall depth is approx 3/4inch

Rare to find in such splendid condition.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me for further pictures or details.

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.

Guilloche enamel is a decorative technique where a precise, repetitive geometric pattern is mechanically engraved into an underlying metal surface, which is then covered with layers of translucent coloured enamel.

These items are typically constructed from silver, silver-gilt, or base metals featuring engine-turned engraving, topped with coloured glass-based translucent enamels.

Authentic pieces feature crisp, uniform geometric patterning beneath a smooth glass layer, often accompanied by silver hallmarking or maker marks on the metal reverse or rim.

These small decorative objects function well as accents on a bedside table, dressing table, or styled alongside books on a study desk or mantelpiece.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid exposure to water, harsh chemicals, or thermal shock, which can cause the glass enamel to crack or chip.
