Description

Antique Matquetry Inlaid Satin Wood Grandfather Clock By Thomas Reynolds Oxford.

This beautiful antique long case / grandfather clock has a stunning satin wood case with marquetry inlay and a rich colour and grain. The top of the case is arched with three lovely brass finials as well as dial being flanked by columns. The trunk of the case then has fantastic marquetry inlay to the doo as well as lovely thick cross banding to the sides. The base then continues the intricate marquetry inlay with cross banding to the sides. A truly beautiful case then is not only unique but would look fantastic in any home.

The dial is then a brass, arched example with a silvered chapter ring set out in Roman numerals. The centre of the dial is then painted, which again is unusual, with a lovely scene featuring a castle and people. The centre also has a subsidiary second dial as well as a date aperture. The each corner then has a lovely shaped spandril as well as the arch having two flanking the makers disk which reads “Thos Reynolds Oxford”. Finally the dial is finished by lovely shaped fingers.

The movement is then complete, ticking away as it should and chiming the number of hours on the hour via a bell. The movement is complete with its weights, pendulum and winding key. The date and second dials also work perfectly.

It measures approximately:

- 88” / 223.5cm Tall.

- 19.75” / 50cm Wide.

- 10.25” / 26cm Deep.

Grandfather clocks, also known as longcase clocks, emerged following the invention of the anchor escapement in the late 17th century, which allowed for longer pendulums and narrower weights.

These clocks are traditionally constructed from fine timbers such as oak, mahogany, walnut, and satinwood, often featuring intricate marquetry, brass dials, and hand-forged mechanical movements.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-painted or engraved brass dials signed by the maker, period-appropriate mechanical movements, and traditional cabinet construction methods like dovetailing.

A grandfather clock serves as a strong focal point in a room, contrasting well against minimalist walls or anchoring traditional spaces with organic warmth and mechanical heritage.

Keep the clock away from direct sunlight and major temperature fluctuations, ensure it is positioned on a level surface, and have the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years.
