Condition / Servicing Note:

Please note that antique clocks are complex and sensitive mechanical objects. While some clocks may be running at the time of listing we cannot guarantee ongoing performance without a full inspection and testing period by our specialist horologist. Where inspection, testing, or servicing is required this process can take between 2–12 weeks depending on the clock, the work needed, and current workload. This careful approach helps ensure the clock is properly assessed rather than rushed.

Clock Warranty

All clocks purchased from London City Antiques are supplied with a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase.

This warranty covers mechanical faults and failures arising from normal use. It does not extend to damage resulting from improper handling, unauthorised tampering, accidental or physical damage, environmental factors (including humidity, temperature fluctuations, or exposure to direct sunlight), or misuse.

Should a clock develop a genuine fault within the warranty period that meets the above conditions, we will, at our discretion and at no cost to you, arrange for the repair or replacement of any defective parts. All remedial work will be carried out by a fully qualified and experienced horologist.

In the unlikely event that a fault cannot be satisfactorily resolved, a full refund will be offered.

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.

Nineteenth-century French mantel clocks are distinguished by precise horological movements housed in decorative wooden cases. Rosewood examples frequently feature contrasting marquetry inlays made of lighter woods or brass, shaped arch silhouettes, and elaborate brass or enamel dials.

These clocks typically utilise solid hardwood cases veneered in dark rosewood or walnut, combined with delicate marquetry inlays made from boxwood, fruitwood, or brass. Dials were commonly constructed from spun brass, featuring silvered accents or individual white enamel Roman numeral cartouches.

Authentic period examples often display French clockmaker stamps or serial numbers on the rear brass movement plate. Look for genuine hand-cut wood inlay, natural surface patination, and heavy cast-brass dial surrounds rather than cast resin or modern printed reproductions.

Place the clock as a focal decorative object on a fireplace mantel, sideboard top, or formal office desk. The rich timber tones pair effectively alongside contemporary stone surrounds, modern artwork, or minimalist glass decor to create visual balance.

Dust the wood case regularly with a clean, dry microfibre cloth, keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer lifting. Mechanical movements require periodic professional servicing and light oiling by a qualified horologist every few years.
