The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A basket top table clock is a late 17th-century English portable timepiece characterised by a decorative repousse or pierced metal dome ornamenting the top of the timber case.

Craftsmen typically utilised ebony veneer over an oak carcass, combined with brass movements, silvered chapter rings, and gilt-brass cast mounts.

Authentic examples feature hand-gilded brass mounts, verge or early anchor escapements, hand-engraved backplates, and silvered brass chapter rings secured with cast corner spandrels.

Position the clock centrally on a timber sideboard, a stone fireplace mantelpiece, or within a library display cabinet alongside leather-bound volumes and brass accents.

Dust the wooden case using a dry soft microfibre cloth, avoid applying harsh chemical polishes to original gilding, and ensure the mechanical movement is serviced by a qualified horologist every five to seven years.
