Condition / Servicing Note:

Please note that antique clocks are complex and sensitive mechanical objects. While some clocks may be running at the time of listing we cannot guarantee ongoing performance without a full inspection and testing period by our specialist horologist. Where inspection, testing, or servicing is required this process can take between 2–12 weeks depending on the clock, the work needed, and current workload. This careful approach helps ensure the clock is properly assessed rather than rushed.

Clock Warranty

All clocks purchased from London City Antiques are supplied with a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase.

This warranty covers mechanical faults and failures arising from normal use. It does not extend to damage resulting from improper handling, unauthorised tampering, accidental or physical damage, environmental factors (including humidity, temperature fluctuations, or exposure to direct sunlight), or misuse.

Should a clock develop a genuine fault within the warranty period that meets the above conditions, we will, at our discretion and at no cost to you, arrange for the repair or replacement of any defective parts. All remedial work will be carried out by a fully qualified and experienced horologist.

In the unlikely event that a fault cannot be satisfactorily resolved, a full refund will be offered.

A George III longcase clock, commonly known as a grandfather clock, is a tall, weight-driven pendulum clock crafted in Britain between 1760 and 1820. These timepieces featured eight-day or thirty-hour mechanical movements encased in timber housing designed to protect the hanging weights and pendulum.

Georgian longcase clock cabinets were predominantly constructed from solid oak, walnut, or mahogany, often featuring decorative mahogany crossbanding and brass mounts. The clock dials were made of brass or painted iron plates with brass spandrels, housing cast brass gear trains and iron weights.

Authentic 18th-century longcase clocks display hand-carved joinery details, hand-painted or engraved dials, and period-correct mechanical movements with hand-cut brass gears. Look for maker marks on the dial face, correct patina on the timber, and evidence of weight wear inside the trunk.

A tall longcase clock provides vertical structure and historical contrast in contemporary hallways, stair landings, or dining spaces. Positioning the clock against neutral panelled walls or alongside minimalist furnishings highlights its wood grain and architectural proportions.

Keep the wooden case in a stable environment away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and finish deterioration. The mechanical movement requires professional oiling every three to five years and periodic cleaning by a specialist clockmaker to ensure smooth operation.
