Time for Some History
It has been said that the word "clock" is ultimately derived from the Celtic words clagan and clocca, meaning "bell." Clocks that operate silently, without chimes or other indicators of the passing minutes, are commonly referred to as timepieces, though any clock would fall under that category. Timepieces have been used for centuries to measure the passage of time. Early time-keeping devices like sundials relied on the sun. Although many of our clocks look like antiques, our clocks are all battery operated so they'll keep working after the sun sets.

Timeless Timepieces
Clocks have been mass-produced in America since around the mid 1850's, and production reportedly began in Massachusetts. Antique clocks can be found in antique markets and malls alike, each carrying a piece of personal history with them. Our clocks add a touch of whimsy, elegance or nostalgia to a room’s décor, and there’s a clock for every style.

You can enjoy the time you spend studying these clocks as they all feature impressive motifs and imagery appealing to any home. Enhance a farmhouse-themed kitchen, create a vintage hideaway or add a beachscape look to any room with the options shown here.
