A fusee skeleton clock, designed in the Victorian style, is generally a popular piece of furniture.

Finding the Right Clocks for You

A sophisticated clock design, whether it’s a desk clock, mantel clock or large wall clock for your living room, is a decorative object to be admired in your home as much as it is a necessary functional element. This is part of the reason clocks make such superb collectibles. Given the versatility of these treasured fixtures — they’ve long been made in a range of shapes, sizes and styles — a clock can prove integral to your own particular interior decor.

Antique and vintage clocks can whisk us back to the 18th and 19th centuries. When most people think of antique clocks, they imagine an Art Deco Bakelite tabletop clock or wall clock, named for the revolutionary synthetic plastic, Bakelite, of which they’re made, or a stately antique grandfather clock. But the art of clock-making goes way back, transcending continents and encompassing an entire range of design styles and technologies. In short, there are many kinds of clocks depending on your needs.

A variety of wall clocks can be found on 1stDibs. A large antique hand-carved walnut wall clock is best suited to a big room and a flat background given what will likely be outwardly sculptural features, while Georgian grandfather clocks, or longcase clocks, will help welcome rainswept guests into your entryway or foyer. An interactive cuckoo clock, large or small, is guaranteed to bring outsize personality to your living room or dining room. For conversation pieces of a similar breed, mid-century modern enthusiasts go for the curious Ball clock, the first of more than 150 clock models conceived in the studio of legendary architect and designer George Nelson

Minimalist contemporary clocks and books pair nicely on a shelf, but an eye-catching vintage mantel clock can add balance to your home library while drawing attention to your art and design books and other decorative objects. Ormolu clocks dating from the Louis XVI period, designed in the neoclassical style, are often profusely ornate, featuring architectural flourishes and rich naturalistic details. Rococo-style mantel clocks of Meissen porcelain or porcelain originating from manufacturers in cities such as Limoges, France, during the 18th and 19th centuries, exude an air of imperial elegance on your shelves or side tables and can help give your desk a 19th-century upgrade.

On 1stDibs, find a range of extraordinary antique and vintage clocks today.

Questions About Fusee Skeleton Clock
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A fusee clock uses a mainspring barrel, a fusee and a chain coiled around an arbor. The barrel pulls at the chain, winding the fusee. This pulley method was considered revolutionary at the time, but its mechanical origins can be traced back to the 1600s. This type of watch movement faded out of favor in the mid 1700s. Shop a collection of properly vetted fusee clocks from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A fusee clock uses a wound cord or chain around a spindle with a pulley to keep time with a symmetrical tick and tock. To wind a fusee clock, a key is needed to unwind the chain off the barrel and back onto the fusee. Moving the hands to the correct time prior to winding is no trick, so setting the time is fairly easy—it’s setting the gears or winding that can be difficult to get just right. Shop a collection of fusee clocks from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
