Folkard & Son Brighton Carriage Clock

19th century
For Sale by Its About Time
Description

Here we have a small carriage clock with push repeat and bell strike. The case is typical 'gorge' style and bright polished. The glass is all bevelled and original 'white' glass from the period. The dial is signed by the retailers Folkard and Son of Brighton who were purveyors of fine clocks. This carriage clock would have been made for them in the French workshops and to my eye, most likely early Jacot without a stamp. The clock is wound from the rear and has hand setting. The clock will run for a week. The bell is light and pleasant. This clock has had a complete dismantle-strip down service and carries our 24month guarantee. The original escapement on this clock has an 18400 Bpm which is a little unusual too.

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.

Developed in the early nineteenth century for travellers, a carriage clock is a small, portable spring-driven timepiece housed in a rectangular brass case with glass panels and an upper carrying handle.

Carriage clocks were predominantly constructed with polished brass or gilded bronze cases, bevelled glass viewing panels, and white enamel dials featuring blued steel hands.

Authentic period pieces feature substantial brass cases with original bevelled glass, mechanical spring-driven balance movements, and hand-enameled dials often marked with retailer or clockmaker signatures.

A brass carriage clock serves as a sophisticated accent on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or executive desk, introducing warm metallic tones and classic horological detail to modern rooms.

Dust the glass plates and brass casing regularly using a soft microfibre cloth, avoid abrasive liquid polishes that remove protective lacquers, and consult a qualified horologist for movement servicing.
