The world of wall clocks is older than what most of us think. Initial wall clocks had metal casts on beautiful wooden frames. Wall clocks can be distinguished in many ways considering their period, their cost, their working and their style. Below, I will present some of the most popular types of wall clocks.
Pendulum Wall Clocks. The pendulum wall clock is different than other type of wall clocks in terms of working, manufacturing and appearance. The pendulum is what is unique about these clocks. Christian Huygens invented the first pendulum clock. These days, pendulum clocks have been working on springs and even batteries.
Decorative Wall Clocks. Decorative wall clocks are smaller in size and popular as they match with most theme based rooms. Some wall clock manufacturers offer limited number of designer wall clocks signed by famous personalities.
Musical Wall Clocks. Musical wall clocks are those which emit a tune after a certain period of time, intervals which can be manually adjusted. Cuckoo clocks are famous examples of musical clocks. Nowadays, musical clocks working on batteries are getting more popularity.
Personalized Wall Clocks. Wall clocks can be specially made with names and pictures crafted on them to celebrate special occasions like anniversaries, birthdays and other special occasions. These types of wall clocks are known as personalized wall clocks. Many companies order wall clocks with company logos and printed names.
Antique Wall Clocks. The words ‘wall clock' and ‘antique' seem synonymous with many museums dedicated to antique artifacts proudly displaying wall clocks from various periods. Antique wall clocks are those which have been tested by time and many of these are still in working conditions. Also, the antique wall clocks have won various prizes in auctions which are popular among the collectors.
