Keep the clock away from direct sunlight, dampness, and extreme temperature fluctuations to protect both the timber case and the internal metal components.

What is an Amsterdam School clock?

Amsterdam School pieces showcase expressive brickwork-inspired brick patterns, contrasting timber veneers, and architectural silhouettes typical of early twentieth-century Dutch design. These clocks favour heavy oak frames enriched with dark exotic woods to create sculptural, solid forms.
