Collectible Mantel Clocks

  A wonderful addition to the interior of your home or workplace, mantel clocks offer a timeless beauty with their unique designs from many different manufacturers. Prized by collectors worldwide, the designs of an antique Seth Thomas clock,  the intricate carvings of a Gilbert clock, or a tambour clock from the Sessions clock company, all are valued highly by collectors of fine antiques.

  Credit is generally given to the English for the production of the first mantle clocks sometime in the 1500s. Gracing the fireplace mantles of royalty, these first clocks made an immediate impression worldwide and became a must have for the fortunate few who could afford them.
