The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Carriage clocks were developed in France in the early nineteenth century, primarily designed by Abraham-Louis Breguet for travellers requiring a reliable timepiece on journeys. They feature compact rectangular brass cases with carrying handles and heavy glass panels to protect the internal movement.

Traditional carriage clocks are constructed with solid brass cases, bevelled glass panels, blued steel hands, and white enamel dials over copper plates. The internal mechanical movements are made from brass and steel components.

Authentic period carriage clocks feature spring-driven mechanical movements visible through top and side glass panels, hand-enamelled dials, and brass cases with screw construction rather than modern clipped fastenings.

A brass carriage clock can be styled on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk to introduce warm metallic tones and historical texture alongside modern decorative objects.

Keep the clock in a dry environment to minimise brass oxidisation, dust the exterior with a soft cloth, and have the mechanical movement cleaned and lubricated by a qualified horologist every five to seven years.
