This Queen Anne style grandmother longcase clock dates from 1930 and demonstrates traditional English country house design. Rendered in a warm brown tone, the case showcases a bookmatched burr walnut veneer with rich figuring, complemented by an arched hood, glass panel, and brass hardware. The tall, slender silhouette houses a dial bearing Roman numerals alongside subtle floral decoration. Measuring 188.5 cm high, 39.5 cm wide, and 27 cm deep, the clock provides a commanding yet vertical presence. Inside the long trunk door, an incorporated presentation plaque records a service milestone from 1936. The enclosed movement operates through an eight-day mechanism that strikes on gongs, incorporating a silence and chime lever alongside a convex silvered dial. Suitable for placement in a hallway, study, or living room, this timepiece brings traditional horological craftsmanship and warm wood tones into everyday interiors.

FAQs

A grandmother clock is a slim, floor-standing timepiece that is shorter than a traditional grandfather clock, usually measuring between five and six feet in height. Popularised in the early twentieth century, these clocks feature weight-driven or spring-driven movements housed within decorative wooden cases.

Cabinets were typically constructed using solid hardwoods like oak or pine as a secondary frame, over which figured burr walnut veneers were applied. Clock dials feature brass bezels, painted or silvered metal faces, and internal movements composed of brass gears and steel arbors.

Authentic timepieces demonstrate hand-cut joinery, original weight-driven mechanisms, and natural wear around winding apertures and door hinges. Inspection of the reverse movement casing and the patination of the wood grain provides further evidence of age and period construction.

Positioning a longcase clock against a neutral wall accentuates the natural figure of the burr walnut veneer as a architectural focal point. Placing the piece alongside streamlined contemporary furniture creates a balanced contrast between historic horology and modern design.

The wooden cabinet should be positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer movement or cracking. Regular dusting with a dry lint-free cloth and periodic application of beeswax polish protects the surface, while mechanical movements require horological servicing every few years.
