Oak and Brass Dinner Gong

1900 - 1920
Description

A fine oak dinner gong, featuring a beautifully turned and carved solid oak frame with elegant finials and out-swept feet for stability. The craftsmanship displays the refined decorative style typical of the early 20th century.

At the centre hangs a hand-hammered brass gong plate, suspended on a cord and producing a deep, resonant tone when struck. A later replacement mallet accompanies the piece, resting neatly on a side peg.

This impressive dinner gong makes a wonderful decorative statement piece for a hallway, dining room, or period interior, combining aesthetic charm with a touch of nostalgia.

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.

Freestanding dinner gongs were introduced in 19th-century country houses and townhouses to signal mealtimes to residents and guests across large properties.

These pieces typically feature spun or cast brass gongs suspended within timber frames crafted from carved oak, mahogany, or walnut, held together with traditional joinery.

Authentic examples often feature hand-carved joinery details, naturally oxidised brass patination, age-appropriate wear to the timber finish, and original leather or felt-headed beaters.

An antique dinner gong serves as a sculptural accent when placed in a hallway, entryway, or beside a sideboard to add historical texture and visual interest.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax periodically; clean the brass with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive polishes that strip original patina.
