Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

A First World War propeller clock is a commemorative timepiece constructed using a section of a wooden aircraft propeller blade or hub, popularised as trench art and military souvenirs during and after the 19141918 conflict.

These timepieces were typically crafted from laminated timbers such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, combined with brass or nickel bezel clock inserts and glass dial covers.

Authentic pieces exhibit laminated wood construction consistent with period aircraft production, original clock inserts by makers like Smiths, and evidence of hand-finishing on the wooden mounting plinth.

A propeller clock functions as an accent piece on an office desk, library bookshelf, or fireplace mantelpiece, pairing well with dark woods, brass accessories, and traditional study decor.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth, keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage, and clean the glass clock face with a non-abrasive glass cleaner.
