Handmade clocks from British hardwoods

Large Round Burr Oak

Comfrey Cottage Crafts design and make clocks by hand from the most attractive British hardwoods such as Oak, Elm, Beech, Walnut, Lacewood (London Plane) and Ash. See the Timber Guide for a good idea of what each type of wood looks like. The designs are kept simple to enhance the beauty of the wood. No two clocks are identical, so these clocks make excellent wedding, anniversary, Christmas or birthday gifts. The Gallery has photographs of clocks that have been made for previous customers.

The basic shape of the clocks may be individually tailored. Timbers can be varied from the plainest beech to the busiest burr elm or oak, subject to your request and timber availability. Here are some of the most popular shapes and styles:

Large round, about 13" (33cm) diameter
Large oval, about 13" by 8" (33cm by 20cm)
Medium round, about 8" (20cm) diameter
