Geo III Mahogany Bracket Clock

19th century
For Sale by Cross Antiques
Description

A lovely crusty Geo III Bracket Clock by John Grant of Fleet Street, London. He is listed as working there from 1781 to 1810.

The case is in nicely figured mahogany and it has retained its original finials, handle and brass ogee feet.

The good quality double fusee movement strikes the hour on a bell and has a smart engraved silvered dial. It also has the all important strike / silent selector.

The case is in good original condition, is a lovely colour and has retained its original finish.

The movement is in good clean condition and it is keeping good time. The movement possibly originally had a verge escapement and this may have been changed to the current more accurate and reliable anchor escapement. This has been well done and was probably carried out in the early 19th Cent.

The maximum dimensions are:

53cm (21") high including the handle

29cm (11.5") wide

19cm (7.5") deep

Free local delivery and set up (60mls), national and international delivery arranged at cost

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.

Originating in 17th and 18th century Britain, a bracket clock is a spring-driven table clock housed in a wooden case, historically designed to sit either on a matching wall bracket or a mantelpiece.

Clockmakers typically used dense timber veneers such as mahogany, walnut, or ebony over oak carcases, combined with brass movement plates, cast brass spandrels, glass panels, and silvered brass dials.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-engraved brass or silvered dials with strike/silent selectors, cast corner spandrels, brass fusee movements, and historic joinery techniques including hand-cut dovetails.

Position the clock centrally on a marble mantelpiece, a dark wood sideboard, or within a gentlemans library bookcase to create an anchor point among contrasting contemporary decor.

Keep the wooden case away from direct sunlight and fluctuating heat sources, wipe brass fittings with a dry cloth without harsh abrasives, and have the mechanical movement lubricated by a professional horologist every five years.
