FAQs

Longcase clocks, commonly known as grandfather clocks, evolved during the late 17th century following the invention of the anchor escapement by Robert Hooke around 1670, which allowed for longer pendulums and narrower weights.

Traditional construction typically involved native timbers such as oak, walnut, or mahogany for the case, housing brass or iron mechanical movements with painted or brass dial faces.

Authentic pieces are identified through hand-cut movement components, signature engravings on the dial, secondary timber use within the case interior, and period-appropriate wear patterns around the winding holes and key escutcheons.

A longcase clock serves as a strong vertical focal point in contemporary spaces, pairing well with minimalist surroundings to highlight its traditional craftsmanship and architectural silhouette.

Preservation involves placing the clock away from direct sunlight and heat sources, ensuring it stands on a level floor to maintain beat, and having the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years.
