Description

This exceptional carriage clock is in remarkable original condition. It has an eight day striking movement operating on the hours and half hours on a well toned gong with the addition of the hour repeat button at the top of the case for nighttime use.

This lovely ornate clock is completely original. It shows very little signs of age and handling and is in superb condition. The case is of the best quality, it is ornate and wonderfully cast and crisply finished by hand with a chasing chisel giving sharp detailing and finished in rich pure gold with virtually no signs of wear.

The dial is circular in white enamel with black numerals and is set into a hand engraved engine turned solid gilt mask.

The clock was purchased from a private collection and has not been on the market for a long time.

The clock is in very good working order. It has been tested by our horologist who agreed this beautiful clock was from a top quality maker with its high style and luxurious case. We have shown an illustration from a book which shows a similar, very high quality case.

Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

FAQs

Carriage clocks originated in France during the 19th century as portable timepieces designed for travellers, military officers, and nobility, combining precision mechanical movements with robust protective brass and glass cases.

Authentic period carriage clocks typically feature a heavy fire-gilded brass or bronze case enclosing bevelled glass panels, housing an eight-day spring-driven brass movement with a cylinder or lever escapement.

Authentication involves examining the hand-cut gears, serial numbers stamped on the movement and backplate, the quality of the fire-gilding, and the presence of original escapements and winding arbors.

Place the clock as a focal point on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk where its reflective metallic finish and intricate mechanical details can be appreciated from multiple angles.

Keep the clock away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, dust the glass and brass gently with a soft dry cloth, and have the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years.
