FAQs

A Georgian longcase clock, commonly known as a grandfather clock, is a tall, freestanding pendulum clock crafted in Britain during the period spanning 1714 to 1830.

Cabinetmakers predominantly used flame mahogany, walnut, or oak for the outer case, paired with weight-driven brass and iron movements, cast brass spandrels, and silvered chapter rings.

Authentic Georgian longcase clocks feature hand-engraved brass or silvered dials, cast corner spandrels, original weight-driven mechanisms, and hand-cut timber joinery consistent with 18th-century cabinetmaking techniques.

A longcase clock acts as an architectural focal point in an entryway, hallway, or dining area, providing vertical emphasis and contrasting classical timber craftsmanship against contemporary backdrops.

Ensure the casing remains perfectly level on a stable floor, wind the mechanism at regular intervals, and arrange for a professional horologist to clean and oil the movement every five to seven years.
