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.

A William and Mary basket top clock is a spring-driven English table or bracket clock produced during the late seventeenth century, characterized by a veneered wooden case topped with a decorative, pierced, gilded brass basket and carrying handle.

These clocks typically feature cases constructed from oak veneered with ebony, fruitwood, or walnut, accompanied by cast and chased gilt-brass mounts, brass dials with silvered chapter rings, and iron movement components.

Authentic pieces from circa 16901700 display hand-engraved silvered chapter rings, cast winged cherub corner spandrels, latch-secured movement plates, and pierced repousse brass top baskets alongside period-appropriate brass mounts.

Place the clock centrally on a chimney piece, dark timber sideboard, or writing desk to serve as an anchor point within classic, traditional, or eclectic room schemes.

Keep the clock in a stable environment away from direct heat sources to prevent wood veneer cracking, dust the case gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoid aggressive chemical polishes on aged brass or ormolu mounts.
