How do I wind a mechanical mantel clock?

Use the appropriate winding key on the dedicated arbours located on the dial face. Turn gently until resistance is felt, avoiding overwinding the mainspring. Ensure you match the correct key size to prevent damaging the square winding posts. Most mechanical movements require winding once every eight days.

What is the difference between a mantel clock and a bracket clock?

Mantel clocks sit directly on flat fireplace ledges or furniture surfaces using stable stone or wooden bases. Their designs prioritise front-facing decorative symmetry. Bracket clocks originated as portable timepieces placed on wall brackets, typically featuring arched wooden hoods and carrying handles. Many bracket clocks in this selection retain their matching wall hanging supports.

How should I clean ormolu mounts?

Dust the metal surfaces gently using a soft, dry artist's brush or microfiber cloth. Avoid commercial metal polishes, which strip the thin layer of historical gilding. Keep moisture away from the dial and internal movement. Professional conservation is recommended for tarnished or neglected metalwork.

Why does my antique clock run fast or slow?

Mechanical clocks are sensitive to temperature changes, surface levelness, and the wear of internal metal components. Small adjustments to the pendulum regulation nut can correct the timing. Clock movements require periodic professional cleaning and lubrication to remove old oils. If regulation does not resolve timing errors, internal servicing is typically necessary.
