This traditional English desk clock stands in a square brass-toned case measuring 16 cm high, 16 cm wide, and 6.5 cm deep. The piece dates from 1930 and belongs in a gentleman's library or office desk setting. A bevelled glass pane protects the face, which contains a silvered chapter ring with black Roman numerals, winged putti spandrels in the corners, a textured center, and slender blued steel hands. Brass and silver tones dominate the palette, complemented by visible screw heads on the dial and decorative metal corner appliqués. Practical everyday placement suits this compact timepiece on a study desk, writing table, or mantelpiece where small traditional accessories fit naturally. The winding mechanism, slow and fast regulator, and time adjuster operate from the back of the case. Careful dusting maintains the metallic surfaces of the brass frame and glass front, while standard desk placement keeps the object secure during daily use.

FAQs

A strut clock is a compact table or desk timepiece featuring a hinged folding rear support or strut, allowing it to stand upright on flat surfaces.

These timepieces are typically constructed with brass or gilt-metal cases, silvered brass dials or chapter rings, and bevelled glass fronts housing compact mechanical movements.

Look for hand-engraved dial details, cast brass corner spandrels, blued steel hands, and period maker marks or country-of-origin stamps along the dial rim.

Position the clock on an executive desk, bookshelf, or bedside table alongside structured leather accessories or framed artwork to create an understated focal point.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that can strip lacquered brass finishes or damage delicate silvered chapter rings.
