FAQs

A japanned longcase clock is a tall, floor-standing timepiece featuring a timber cabinet finished with European lacquerwork imitating Asian lacquer techniques, popular in Britain during the late 17th and 18th centuries.

These clocks typically feature cases constructed from oak or pine finished with japanning, shellac, or veneers, paired with brass dials, steel hands, and cast brass spandrels surrounding the clock face.

Authentic period examples display signs of hand-craftsmanship, such as hand-cut brass gears, iron weights, correct period maker signatures on the dial, and natural craquelure in the lacquer finish.

Position the clock as a focal architectural feature in a hallway, library, or drawing room, balancing its dark patinated finish against neutral walls or rich wood panelling.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, central heating sources, and moisture to prevent wood movement and lacquer flaking; dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth without harsh liquid cleaners.
