Antique Bracket Clocks


Bracket Clocks were developed in last quarter of the 17th century. They're built of two agreeing pieces compiled as one unit: clock and small ornamental shelf. Bracket clocks are commonly about 1'H x 9"W and are just about always manufactured from wood and frequently adorned with ormolu mounts, brass inlay, wood or tortoise shell veneering, or ornamental seal. Most alleged bracket clocks are actually spring-driven table clocks. These clocks just about always bore repeating work. Meaning it was conceivable to have the clock chime the past hour over again at will. This was particularly valuable during the night. Many a clock which could repeat did not generally chime by the hour, so they either had a strike mute lever or they didn't chime unless the repeat mechanics was pulled. These clocks were costly in their time, a home wouldn't place one in every room. The clock was mobile so it could be easiliy displaced to the sleeping room or any other room in the household. However not all Bracket Clocks were completely bound to a bracket.
