Edwardian Bracket Clock for Sale

Clockwise is pleased to offer this refined Edwardian bracket clock for sale, a striking and well-proportioned example of early twentieth-century English clockmaking. Dating from 1914, as confirmed by the original presentation plaque mounted to the front of the case, this clock combines high-quality craftsmanship with elegant Edwardian design, making it an ideal choice for collectors and those seeking a distinguished antique timepiece for the home or office.

This is an eight-day, non-fusee striking bracket clock with a movement of notably high quality. Although unstamped, the construction and finish are comparable to the work of Winterhalder & Hofmeier, renowned for producing some of the finest movements of the period. The movement has been recently serviced and performs exactly as it should, striking the full hour and the half hour on a rich, mellow gong that has a particularly pleasing and authoritative tone.

The oak case is beautifully proportioned and presented in excellent condition. It has been carefully polished to a high standard, bringing out the warmth and depth of the wood while retaining its original character. The upper front of the case features delicate engraved decoration, adding visual interest without overpowering the clean Edwardian lines. The overall appearance is elegant and confident, making this clock suitable for both traditional and more formal interiors.

A standout feature is the heavy cast brass bezel, which is held securely in place by the original working front catch—a detail that collectors value highly. The bezel frames a striking silvered dial, which is particularly reflective and catches the light beautifully. This is complemented by the original blued steel hands, which provide excellent contrast and are entirely in keeping with the period. The clock is supplied with its original key, an increasingly rare and desirable inclusion.

This Edwardian bracket clock is supplied with Clockwise’s standard three-year guarantee, offering peace of mind and underlining the confidence placed in both the clock and the restoration work carried out. Delivery can be easily arranged, ensuring the clock reaches its new home safely and securely.

Clockwise specialises in longcase and bracket clocks and serves a wide and varied clientele, including individuals from the worlds of business, film, sport, royalty, and aristocracy, while remaining equally committed to traditional private collectors.

Eight-Day, Non-Fusee Striking Bracket Clock

This Edwardian bracket clock is fitted with a high-grade eight-day, non-fusee striking movement, a configuration favoured in the early twentieth century for its reliability, accuracy, and ease of use. Designed to run for a full eight days on a single winding, the movement offers dependable timekeeping without the complexity of a fusee mechanism, making it both practical and robust while still reflecting quality craftsmanship.

Although the movement is unstamped, its construction and finish are of a standard comparable to respected makers such as Winterhalder and Hofmeier. The plates, gearing, and overall layout indicate careful manufacture and attention to detail, characteristics typically found in better-quality Edwardian bracket clocks rather than mass-produced examples.

The movement has been recently serviced and is in excellent working order. It strikes the half hour and the full hour on a resonant gong, producing a clear, rounded tone that is both authoritative and pleasing to the ear. The strike is well-timed and balanced, adding to the clock’s presence without being intrusive.

This type of eight-day striking movement represents an ideal balance between mechanical quality and everyday usability, making it especially appealing to collectors and owners who appreciate traditional clockmaking combined with reliable, long-term performance.
