If you are looking for a clock that boasts an old-world style to complement your home's decor, an antique Tall Clock can be an excellent choice. As functional and decorative objects, these decorative pendulum clocks are often handed down from generation to generation as precious family heirlooms owing to their value and admiration. Due to their nostalgic charm and sentimental value, Tall Clocks are true treasures in the eyes of those who own them. The beauty of their cases and the reliability, quality, and durability of their movements make them highly prized by collectors.
These vertically gifted clocks were called "longcase clocks" when they first appeared nearly 350 years ago, a name that's still commonly used today. In the 17th century, Tall Clocks were first made available as freestanding units, whose long cases housed all the necessary mechanisms needed to operate the clock, giving it its distinctive appearance. Following the style of the longcase clock, these clocks are usually displayed in the tower.  In some clocks, the pendulum will be visible through the glass casing, while in others, the inner mechanisms will be hidden behind wooden materials like oak, walnut, mahogany, cherry, or elm.  

As decorative casings became increasingly popular, timepieces of such a high value became the preserve of aristocrats and royalty during the 18th century. In response to the popularity of the song "My Grandfather's Clock" in 1875, the Tall Clock was given a new nickname. In general, Grandfather Clocks are the tallest of the longcase varieties, whereas Grandmother Clocks and Granddaughter Clocks are lower in height. Since the long pendulum and weights had to fit in the large case, the clocks were 6 feet to 9 feet high. While the first Tall Clocks were characterized by classical architectural features, a variety of styles have become increasingly popular over time.
