The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A clock garniture is a decorative set typically comprising a central mantel clock flanked by a matching pair of candelabra or urns, popularised during the reign of Louis XVI in 18th-century France. The style emphasises neoclassical proportions, symmetrical balance, and motifs inspired by antiquity.

These sets were constructed using cast gilt bronze, also known as ormolu, often paired with white or black marble bases and hand-painted enamel dials set with Roman numerals.

Authentic period pieces exhibit precise hand-chasing on the bronze surfaces, heavy cast construction, hand-enamelled dial plates, and French mechanical movements stamped with maker marks and serial numbers on the backplate.

Position the central clock on a marble fireplace mantelpiece or dining room sideboard, placing the matching candelabra symmetrically on either side to frame the arrangement and establish visual balance.

Dust the surface regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or a soft-bristled artist brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners, polish, or water, which can degrade original fire-gilding and damage porous marble components.
