| Gold Quartz Skeleton Clock | NEW! Stylish and sophisticated high quality skeleton mantel clock from LC Designs. The gold finish on this napolean clock gives it a traditional feel yet it would not look out of place on a mantelpiece or desk in a more contemporary environment.
First manufactured in France in the late 1700’s skeleton clocks proved to be very popular and by the mid 18th century were widely available across London with people liking the novelty factor of being able to see the intricate mechanisms and workings of the clock under a glass dome.
The glass dome, like the glass surround in this skeleton clock, performed a very important task in that it protected the fine mechanisms from dust.
Established in 1922 the London Clock Company is just one of the successful brands produced by the hugely successful LC Designs. Another successful brand for which they are well known is Dulwich Designs, the UK’s leading distributor of high quality leather jewellery boxes and accessories.

- Solid Metal Case
