The 12" plain painted arched dial features strike/silent to the arch, seconds, date, Roman numerals and the makers name and place of work to the centre of the dial, Viner, Royal Exchange, London. Also with typical high quality matching blued steel hands.

The elegant and small cabinetwork features high quality mahogany veneers to both the trunk door and base. The latter with an applied moulding to the panel and a plain shaped double plinth.

A longcase clock, commonly known as a grandfather clock, is a tall, freestanding, weight-driven pendulum clock with a case enclosing the pendulum and weights, which originated in the late 17th century following the invention of the anchor escapement.

Traditional construction typically involved a solid timber frame encased in fine veneers such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, housing a brass and iron movement, often protected by a glazed dial door.

Authentication involves examining the movement for hand-engraved details and matching maker signatures, inspecting the case timbers for age-related patina and construction methods such as hand-cut dovetails, and checking the compatibility of the dial and movement.

A longcase clock can serve as a striking focal point in a hallway or living room, anchoring contemporary minimalist spaces with traditional craftsmanship and adding architectural height to the room.

Preservation requires maintaining a stable indoor climate away from direct sunlight and moisture, dusting with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding chemical polishes on the wood, and having the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years.
