This Georgian longcase clock is constructed from oak and mahogany with warm brown tones, glass, brass, and iron. The tall case stands 201 cm high, 51.8 cm wide, and 24.5 cm deep. It has a swan-neck pediment with a central brass finial, fluted hood columns, crossbanded panels, and a hand-painted square dial with a seconds sub dial and gilt floral decoration. The three-quarter length trunk door shows radial oak graining and a decorative key escutcheon. Suitable for placement in a hallway, living room, or study, the clock functions as a traditional timekeeper that strikes the hours. The timber displays a mellow faded finish with visible grain patterns on the trunk and base. The brass dial plate features painted Roman numerals and inscribed text, while the hood incorporates glazed panels around the clock face. The base section has a rectangular panel design, and the entire structure rests flat upon the floor.

FAQs

Georgian longcase clocks, created between 1714 and 1830, are floor-standing pendulum clocks characterised by tall timber cabinets. They feature swan-neck or flat-top pediments, fluted hood columns, painted or brass dials, and movements housed within oak or mahogany cases.

Cases were commonly constructed from native woods such as oak and pine, frequently accented with mahogany or walnut veneers and crossbanding. The internal mechanisms were engineered from brass and iron, while dials were executed in painted sheet iron or brass.

Authentic period longcase clocks feature hand-cut joinery, original weight-driven movements, and period-correct dial signatures. Examining the movement mountings, seatboard, wood patination, and backboard reveals whether the mechanism and case originated together.

A longcase clock serves as a vertical architectural element when placed in an entryway, hallway, or dining space. Pairing dark timber cases with modern neutral walls creates a balanced visual contrast between traditional horology and contemporary decor.

Eight-day clocks require regular weekly winding of the weights using the appropriate key. The mechanical movement should be serviced and lubricated by a professional horologist every five to seven years, while the wooden case should be kept away from direct heat sources and polished with beeswax.
