Early 1900s Striking Carriage clock by Drocourt
A striking carriage antique clock made by the renowned maker Drocourt, the gilded case in mint condition.
The clock has an 8 day movement with a silvered lever platform escapement. It strikes the hours and the passing of the half hours on a coiled blued steel gong. The backplate is stamped with Drocourt’s trademark, a cartouche containing a D and C on either side of a carriage antique clock. The movement is numbered 33808. The movement has been overhauled and is guaranteed for 3 years.
Pierre & Alfred Drocourt were among the top makers of carriage antique clocks in the mid to late Victorian period, having a factory at Saint-Nicolas-d’Ailermont in France, and in Paris at Rue Debelleyme 28 and Rue de Limoges. They made superb carriage clocks that were often decorative and were awarded numerous medals at exhibitions, such as the Bronze Medal at Paris 1867, the Silver at Paris 1878 and the gold at Paris in 1889. The son, Alfred Drocourt, succeeded his father Pierre Drocourt sometime in the 1870s.
The serial number of this clock suggests a date of manufacture of the very early years of the 1900s.
The corniche-style of case has a large oval top window and beveled glass sides.
The enamel dial has fine moon hands. We are proud to be one of the UK’s finest suppliers of high quality Antique Clocks. We are based in Somerset, but also serve the rest of the UK. We are also delighted to have a number of overseas customers.
The workshops have recently relocated to Somerset and we continue to stock a large range of antique clocks and new clocks at very competitive prices.
We are proud to be members of LAPADA, the Association of Art and Antique Dealers.
Carlton Clocks is also a business partner of the British Horological Institute.
Ian has years of experience in restoring and maintaining clocks. He has a particular interest in early electric clocks. You will see from our Electric Clocks catalogue that we also manufacture and supply a small range of parts for Bulle, Eureka and Brillie electric clocks.
The mix of other clocks for sale is limited only by what Ian finds interesting and/or beautiful, aesthetically or mechanically.
