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.

Table clocks from the William and Mary period, spanning the late seventeenth century, typically feature ebonised or ebony-veneered cases with gilt-brass mounts and a caddy top design. Dial designs from this era display silvered chapter rings, cast brass spandrels at the corners, and intricate steel hands.

These timepieces were typically constructed using fruitwood or oak carcasses veneered in imported ebony or ebonised pearwood. The decorative mounts, carrying handles, spandrels, and dial components were cast in brass and gilded, while internal movement gears were crafted from brass and steel.

Authentic period examples feature winged cherub or ornate leaf spandrels surrounding a square dial, a narrow silvered brass chapter ring, and a signed movement plate or dial base. The mechanical movement typically utilises a fusee drive with a crown wheel escapement or short pendulum.

Place the clock as a central focal point on a marble fireplace mantelpiece, a dark wood sideboard, or a library writing desk. Pair it with structured contemporary artwork or minimalist brass accessories to highlight its historic silhouette.

Keep the clock case clean by gently dusting with a soft dry microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical polishes on gilded brass surfaces. The mechanical movement requires periodic lubrication and servicing by a qualified professional horologist every five to seven years.
