An evocative survivor of 18th-century Scottish horology, this distinguished longcase clock by Samuel Brown of Edinburgh embodies the refined craftsmanship and restrained elegance for which early Georgian clockmaking is admired. With its stately mahogany case, engraved brass dial, and documented maker, this piece offers both historical presence and timeless decorative appeal.

Materials & Craftsmanship

The case is crafted from solid mahogany, displaying classic Georgian proportions with a molded cornice, fluted corner columns, and a tall paneled trunk door showcasing rich grain and warm, naturally aged patina. The original engraved brass dial features Roman numerals, finely worked spandrels, ornate steel hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial, signed “Sam. Brown, Edinburgh.” The clock retains its original weights and pendulum, a notable and desirable survival for an 18th-century longcase.
