How can you tell the age of a grandmother clock?
1 Answer
To tell the age of a grandmother clock, research its maker using trusted online resources. If you're unsure who produced your clock, look on the inside and back for a maker's marking. Many makers dated their grandmother clocks in some fashion. Depending on the maker, there may be a serial number, movement number or date code that you can use to determine your clock's year of production. By learning how to date clocks produced by your piece's manufacturer, you should be able to at least estimate its age. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer examine your clock and date it for you. Find a range of grandmother clocks on 1stDibs.
