This Neoclassical strut clock originates from 1880, executed in gilt brass and glass with a striking gold and black finish. The heavy rectangular case demonstrates intricate relief ornament, including a ribbon bow cresting at the top, floral garlands draped across the upper border, and tassel drops suspended from the sides. A central circular dial displays black Roman numerals alongside original blued steel hands, all framed by clean linear mouldings. The overall piece stands 28 cm high. Positioned on a desk in a gentleman's library or office, the timepiece functions as both a practical clock and a decorative desktop accessory. The compact dimensions allow placement on an executive desk, library bookcase shelf, or side table, bringing a touch of period design to an interior workspace.

FAQs

A strut clock is a compact table timepiece featuring a hinged rear support leg, allowing the clock to stand upright on a flat surface such as a desk or mantelpiece without requiring wall mounting.

These clocks are typically cast from brass or bronze with fire-gilded or lacquered surface finishes, framing glass-fronted cream or enamel dials driven by small mechanical movements.

Authentic period examples feature heavy cast metal framing with hand-chased ornamentation such as ribbon crests and floral garlands, along with period-correct movement stamps and natural surface patination.

Position the timepiece on a dark wood writing desk, alongside framed artwork on a styled bookshelf, or centered on a living room mantelpiece to provide refined historical detail.

Maintain the surface by dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth or fine brush, keeping the object free from liquid polishes or chemical cleaners that degrade original gilt coatings.
