FAQs

An eight-day longcase clock is a tall, pendulum-driven floor clock featuring a mechanical movement that requires winding once every eight days, originating in the late 17th century.

Georgian longcase clocks were typically constructed using solid hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut for the case, with brass and iron utilised for the movement mechanism and dial components.

Authentic 18th-century longcase clocks often feature hand-engraved brass or painted dials, hand-cast brass spandrels, cast iron weights, and period-correct joinery such as hand-cut dovetails on the case.

An antique longcase clock serves as an architectural anchor in modern interiors when placed against neutral walls, paired with minimalist furnishings or modern artwork to create visual contrast.

Maintain an antique longcase clock by ensuring the case remains level, keeping it away from direct heat sources or dampness, and having the mechanical movement professionally serviced and lubricated every five to seven years.
