Condition / Servicing Note:

Please note that antique clocks are complex and sensitive mechanical objects. While some clocks may be running at the time of listing we cannot guarantee ongoing performance without a full inspection and testing period by our specialist horologist. Where inspection, testing, or servicing is required this process can take between 2–12 weeks depending on the clock, the work needed, and current workload. This careful approach helps ensure the clock is properly assessed rather than rushed.

Clock Warranty

All clocks purchased from London City Antiques are supplied with a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase.

This warranty covers mechanical faults and failures arising from normal use. It does not extend to damage resulting from improper handling, unauthorised tampering, accidental or physical damage, environmental factors (including humidity, temperature fluctuations, or exposure to direct sunlight), or misuse.

Should a clock develop a genuine fault within the warranty period that meets the above conditions, we will, at our discretion and at no cost to you, arrange for the repair or replacement of any defective parts. All remedial work will be carried out by a fully qualified and experienced horologist.

In the unlikely event that a fault cannot be satisfactorily resolved, a full refund will be offered.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
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.

An eight-day longcase clock is a tall weight-driven pendulum clock designed to run for a full week plus one extra day between manual windings. These timepieces typically feature two weights, one powering the timekeeping movement and the other controlling the striking mechanism.

The exterior cabinet was commonly built from solid oak or pine carcass wood faced with flame mahogany or feather mahogany veneers. The movement incorporates brass gears, iron weights, and a painted or engraved sheet-iron dial.

Authentic period examples display signs of hand-craftsmanship, including hand-sawn wood joinery, hand-hammered iron components, and cast brass gear teeth. Painted dials from this era often show natural crazing in the enamel glaze and hand-painted corner spandrel artwork.

A tall longcase clock serves as an architectural anchor in entrance halls, stairwells, or formal dining rooms. Positioning the piece against a light neutral background allows the deep tones of the mahogany grain to stand out without overwhelming contemporary decor.

The mechanical movement requires professional horological cleaning and lubrication every five to seven years. The wooden cabinet should be kept in a climate-controlled environment away from direct heat sources and maintained with a microcrystalline paste wax.
