Westminster & Whittington Chime Granddaughter Clock

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Masons Antiques
Description

A lovely golden oak Grand daughter clock that strikes both the Westminster and the Whittington chimes.

The case is beautifully polished, with a very rich, warm patina. It has a removeable hood with a fully opening door that has barley twist columns to the sides. The base displaying a superb example of quarter-cut timber that particularly highlights the medullary rays of the oak.

The arched, brass dial has a silvered chapter ring with black Roman numerals and gilt spandrels to the quarters. It has a lever to select WESTMINSTER, WHITTINGTON or STRIKE/SILENT options. There is a "Tempus Fugit" logo to the arch, and a matted centre.

The 8 day movement strikes on rods with a clear distinctive tone. It has just been fully overhauled by our BHI registered horologist and carries our usual 12mths full parts and labour guarantee.

Please note: Our photos appear to show the clock as being taller than it is in real life. Actually, it is a beautifully proportioned clock.

Available for Worldwide delivery.

All cards accepted.

FAQs

A granddaughter clock is a compact variation of the longcase floor clock, typically constructed to a lower height than traditional grandfather or grandmother clocks. Originating in the early twentieth century, these timepieces feature scaled-down proportions designed for smaller domestic hallways and reception rooms.

These clocks are predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, often incorporating brass dial plates, spandrels, and glass viewing apertures for the pendulum and weight mechanisms.

Authentic period examples feature mechanical movement assemblies, brass or silvered dials with engraved numerals, and visible chimes such as Westminster or Whittington options. Hand-carved mouldings, wooden joinery, and aged patina on metal components also indicate traditional production.

A traditional floor clock serves as a strong architectural anchor in contemporary hallways, foyers, or study alcoves. Contrast the warm timber finish with neutral wall tones and crisp modern panelling to balance classic and modern aesthetic elements.

Keep the wood casing dust-free using a dry lint-free cloth and apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the timber finish. Mechanical movements should be leveled on a stable surface and serviced by a professional horologist every few years.
