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.

A double fusee skeleton clock is a mechanical timepiece with openwork brass plates that reveal the internal movement, utilizing two cone-shaped pulleys (fusees) connected by gut line or chain to drive both the timekeeping and striking trains.

Victorian skeleton clocks were typically constructed from cast and hand-fretted brass plates, steel gears and arbors, silvered brass chapter rings, and mounted onto ebonised or mahogany wooden bases beneath a mouth-blown glass dome.

Authentic 19th-century examples display hand-cut brass framing, hand-filed wheel teeth, silvered brass dials with engraved Roman numerals, and original glass domes that fit precisely into the recessed groove of the wooden plinth.

A brass skeleton clock serves as a focal point on a dark wood mantelpiece, a minimalist sideboard, or integrated into a library bookcase, contrasting well against rich background paint tones or exposed brick.

Keep the glass dome in place to protect the unsealed movement from airborne dust and moisture, clean the exterior glass with a dry microfibre cloth, and ensure the mechanical movement is serviced by a qualified horologist every five to seven years.
