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.

Arched clock dials emerged during the early 18th century, expanding on earlier square formats to accommodate additional features like strike/silent indicators, calendar dials, or decorative crestings. These brass dials typically feature a central matted brass field, silvered chapter rings with Roman numerals, and elaborate cast brass corner spandrels.

The base plate and corner spandrels were cast and chased in brass, while the chapter rings were silvered brass to provide high contrast against steel clock hands. Key components were held together with copper or brass rivets, and steel was used for the hands and internal movement arbor components.

Authentic pieces feature hand-engraved numbering, cast brass spandrels attached via rivets or screws, and a distinct contrast between the silvered chapter ring and matted central brass ground. Maker signatures were commonly engraved directly onto the dial plate or chapter ring alongside the makers location.

Isolated clock dials and movements can be displayed as decorative art objects on custom metal stands atop mantelpieces, sideboards, or bookshelf units. They can also be wall-mounted within a gallery wall arrangement to introduce historical texture into contemporary spaces.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfiber cloth or delicate brush to remove debris from recessed spandrel details. Abrasive brass polishes must be avoided, as chemical cleaners will strip the delicate silvering layer from the chapter ring and destroy the historical patina of the brass.
