Georgian 8 Day Oak & Mahogany Grandfather Longcase Clock

18th century
For Sale by Heydays Antiques
Description

Attractive Oak with Mahogany Banding Small Longcase Clock

Height: 84in (7ft) or 213cm

The Painted Dial (under investigation) is for Dan Oliver of Wellington. In Brian Loomes Clockmakers Book, one is listed as Late 18th Century, though he wasn’t sure which Wellington. I would muse that, as it came our way from Devon not far from The Wellington in Somerset, that that is the town it came from.

The 8 Day Hour Striking Clock with Seconds has been Checked, Service and Tested to be in Good Working Order, keeping Very Good Time.

The Case is Good & Sound with Attractive Graining and Mahogany Banding. It is currently of the rest against the wall style, though back legs could be added.

Please Contact Robert Via Messages or on 07899 058752 to Discuss or Arrange Viewing (by appointment only). Please Supply Your Postcode for Delivery & Set Up Options. These would, whenever possible, will be done by Robert. However, Courier Service may need to be used.

This Georgian 8 day grandfather longcase clock dates from the 18th century and is made of oak and mahogany in a warm brown colour. The tall wooden case stands on bracket feet and displays distinct graining, with a hood topped by a swan-neck pediment, a central finial, and turned hood columns flanking a square painted dial set behind glass. The dial features Roman numerals, visible winding holes, and subsidiary hands. The trunk has a rectangular long door fitted with a small brass keyhole escutcheon. Measuring 213 cm high, 46.5 cm wide, and 23.5 cm deep, this vertical timepiece makes a functional addition to a hallway, study, or living room in a traditional interior, designed to stand upright against a wall. The 8 hour striking movement includes a seconds hand and functions as a working timekeeper.

A Georgian longcase clock, commonly known as a grandfather clock, is a tall, free-standing, weight-driven pendulum clock crafted during the Georgian era in Great Britain between 1714 and 1837.

These clocks were typically constructed with solid oak or mahogany cases, housing brass movement mechanisms, cast iron weights, and hand-painted square or arched dials displaying Roman numerals.

Authentic Georgian pieces feature period-correct joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, original weight-driven 8-day brass movements, hand-painted dials, and classic architectural hood shapes like swan-neck pediments.

A longcase clock serves as an imposing focal point in a hallway, foyer, or dining room, pairing naturally with muted wall tones, traditional artwork, and warm timber accents.

To preserve a longcase clock, keep the wooden case away from direct heat sources and sunlight, apply beeswax polish sparingly, and have the mechanical movement lubricated and serviced by a professional horologist every five to seven years.
