For over 150 years, Comitti of London has been making the finest quality timepieces and barometers. Onorato Comitti initially established his workshops in London as a maker of barometers and related instruments. In a very short time his beautiful products were gracing the homes of discerning customers. Yet it was not until the late Victorian period that the company diversified into clockmaking. Still, many of the styles made in these early days continue to be available today and they are recognized as English classics. View the collection of Comitti mantel clocks, Comitti wall clocks, skeleton clocks and Comitti grandfather clocks.

 

Comitti clocks of note include the rolling ball, which reflects an attempt to find an alternative to the pendulum as the escapement regulator. C3202CH is an elegant weight-driven wall with book-matched burr yew veneers. C4112TCH is a faithful reproduction of the classic Georgian table models with a triple chime nested bell movement. Finally, grandfather C2210TCH reflects the influence of Georgian architectural design with a hood that slides forward for ease of adjustment.
