Touchwood Clock Gallery

Touchwood have been producing high quality, accurate reproduction longcase clocks for more than 35 years.  Because of this wealth of experience and expertise, we are able to offer a unique, second to none service.  Crossbanding, stringing, marquetry work and inlay are all readily incorporated into the chosen design.  Movements and dials can be selected from those of high quality German manufacture, through to accurate hand built copies of English movements with hand engraved brass or painted dials.
Due to the very large number of combinations of timbers and styles that are possible, the designs shown in these pages represent just a selection of those possibilities.

Country Style

These are the flat topped designs known as Country Style, which can be elaborately veneered.

Pagoda Top Style

These are the ornate styles with decorative brasswork on the hood and case.
