How do I wind a fusee clock?

Winding requires inserting the key into the dial aperture and turning it steadily clockwise until the mechanism resists further movement. Care must be taken not to overwind, particularly with older gut-line or chain fusee movements.

Where were carriage clocks placed?

Carriage clocks served wealthy travellers as portable timekeepers housed in leather travel cases during transit. At home, owners placed them on mantelpieces or desks where the glass panels allowed the movement to be observed.

What is a grandfather clock?

A grandfather clock is a tall floor-standing timekeeper more formally known as a longcase clock. These pieces house weights and pendulums within a protective wooden trunk, standing from six to over eight feet tall.

How do I identify a Victorian clock?

Victorian examples often display heavier proportions, machine-engraved brass dials, and industrial materials like ebonised wood or cast brass. Examination of the movement backplate and case construction helps confirm the nineteenth-century date.
