Where should I place a portico clock?

Position these tall, architectural clocks on a sturdy mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard where they can stand level without vibration. Keep them away from direct sunlight, draughts, and exterior walls that experience significant temperature fluctuations.

How do I identify an Empire period clock?

Look for neoclassical motifs such as trophies of war, classical deities, sphinxes, and palm trees cast in ormolu and patinated bronze. Cases from this era emphasise strict symmetry, military triumphs, and architectural dignity inspired by ancient Rome and Greece.

What maintenance do these movements require?

Mechanical clocks benefit from professional cleaning and lubrication every few years to prevent wear on the brass bushings and gear trains. Dust the exterior surfaces gently with a soft brush, avoiding chemical polishes that can strip the original mercury gilding.
