How do fusee clocks work?

A fusee clock uses a conical drum and a chain to transfer power from the mainspring to the gear train. As the spring runs down, the chain pulls higher up the wider part of the cone to maintain steady force. This clever mechanical compensation prevents the loss of amplitude that ruins standard spring-driven timekeeping accuracy.

Where should I place a bracket clock?

These clocks belong on sturdy surfaces like mantelpieces, sideboards, or dedicated wall brackets where vibrations remain minimal. They need a level foundation to keep the pendulum beating evenly. Keep them away from direct sunlight, damp walls, and active fireplaces to protect the delicate wood veneers and historic internal metals.

What is the difference between single and double fusee?

A single fusee movement drives only the time-keeping train, meaning the clock simply tells the time. These are common in library clocks and basic timepieces. A double fusee movement adds a second train and drum to power the hourly strike or quarter-chiming mechanism, requiring two separate winding holes on the dial.
