The 8 day movement is in full working order striking on a bell on the hour, fronted by a 12 inch painted dial in good condition. The paintwork is original depicting a Farrier tending to a horses shoe. The dial also benefits by having a seconds dial and date calendar dial.

FAQs

An eight-day longcase clock, commonly referred to as a grandfather clock, is a tall, free-standing pendulum clock driven by weights that require winding once every eight days. Historically crafted in Scotland during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these timepieces frequently featured painted dials depicting regional scenes or figures alongside mahogany cabinetry.

Traditional longcase clocks feature solid and veneered wooden cases, predominantly crafted from mahogany, oak, or walnut. Internal movements consist of brass plates and gears, powered by cast iron weights suspended on gut or wire cords, while the dials were often painted iron or engraved brass.

Authentic examples feature hand-cut gears, hand-painted or engraved iron and brass dials, and period-correct joinery such as hand-cut dovetails in the case structure. The makers name and town are frequently hand-painted on the dial face, corresponding to historical horological records.

A traditional longcase clock serves as an architectural anchor in formal entryways, hallways, or living spaces. Complementing the warm timber tones with neutral wall palettes and structured contemporary lighting creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep the clock level and positioned away from direct heat sources or high humidity to prevent wood warping and movement desiccation. The mechanical movement requires professional horological lubrication every three to five years, while the wooden case should be conditioned periodically with natural beeswax.
