Do you know of any web sites where I can sell an antique clock?

I have an old antique clock that is so old that the wheels and pieces are made of wood. Do you know of a web site where I may list it...other than ebay. I hate to let it go but its necessary.
I would think that it is at least 150yrs. old. Its a treasure and it was taken apart to ship during the war. IT is still in pieces ..none are broken. A person would have to know how to put it back together.

Ebay

How to sell antique marble clock?

I don't wish to go to an antique store and get nothing. The clock store that looked at it said that the clockworks were the nicest they had seen in a clock of that age. It is a light colored marble which is not as valuable as black. It is a Waterbury. The clock shop said approximately 1891.

Research What the clock is worth. Put it on Ebay, set a reserve price for the least amount you are willing to take. Let the bidders fight it out from there.

Or the classified ad's in your newspaper.

Will it hurt my antique mantle clock if it's on the mantle during a fire?

I have an antique keywound mantle clock, and it's on the mantle, above the fireplace. Will it hurt the clock if I have a fire in the fireplace with it on the mantle?

Here's a quick and simple test... next time you build a fire, place a candle where the clock would normally set. If the candle survives the heat intact, your clock should be ok too.

I'd just make one note of caution... the extra heat may cause the wood to dry out, over time. Cleaning the clock with Murphy's oil soap on a regular basis will help prevent that, as well as prevent a soot build up, heheh. If you only build a fire once in awhile, it shouldn't be a problem.

Have Fun

How do you set an antique clock that requires a key?

The clock has two holes in the front, on either side, in which to insert the key.

With the old clocks I've had, the keys are for winding the clock mechanism, and the alarm.

Usually you gently push the minute hand around in a clockwise direction until the time is set. If you move the hour hand, you risk messing up the bell or chime system.
