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.

Originating in France during the early nineteenth century, carriage clocks were developed as portable timepieces for travellers. Characterised by rectangular brass cases, glass panels, and top carrying handles, they evolved into popular decorative domestic clocks throughout the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.

Antique carriage clocks were built using heavy cast brass cases, bevelled glass panels, and mechanical spring-driven movements. Dials were commonly finished in white enamel or porcelain, frequently surrounded by engine-turned metal masks.

Authentic French carriage clocks typically display maker marks or serial numbers stamped onto the rear movement plate. Look for original winding arbours, bevelled glass plates, heavy brass casing, and fine enamel work on the dial.

A brass carriage clock serves as a focal point when placed on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk. Juxtaposing the warm brass finish against dark wood, stone surfaces, or minimalist decor highlights its mechanical craftsmanship.

Keep the clock in a dry environment with stable temperatures to prevent internal movement oxidation. Wipe the brass case gently with a soft dry cloth, avoiding harsh liquid metal polishes that can damage original lacquer or gilded finishes.
