The Heritage Collection
The price for these beautiful heritage clocks include delivery to your own home by skilled craftsmen any where in the UK.
The introduction of the pendulum in England in the 1650s heralded the great age of clock making in Britain. It was to prove a technological lead that remained virtually unchallenged throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.
The Heritage Collection reflects the extraordinary ingenuity and craftsmanship of some of the most eminent makers of their day. Included is a reproduction of the Grasshopper Clock, a marine chronometer originally made by perhaps the most famous of them all, John Harrison.
Customers who visit the company’s showroom have an opportunity to view some of the finest workmanship of a bygone age. Each product is hand made and every detail has been considered in order to reproduce craftsmanship of the past masters. The cabinetwork reveals the fine proportions of the classic period designs. The intricate detail of the marquetry, dials and hands have been faithfully recreated.
The finest quality movements incorporate the innovations of generations of horologists. Features such as the automatic night silencer, automatic chime correction and automatic beat setting mean that it is no longer necessary to call in a specialist clockmaker to set up or move such timepieces.
The Heritage Collection reflects the company’s aspiration to create timepieces that as
an investment will retain their intrinsic value for future generations.
