Rough Sawn Hickory Grandfather Clock: Explore GRF-509

At MantelClock Studios, we take pride in crafting timeless pieces that reflect our clients’ unique tastes. When we received the GRF-509 Rough Sawn Hickory Grandfather Clock ordered by a valued customer, we knew it would be a truly one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Neither we nor our customer were disappointed.

Precision craftsmanship: rough sawn hickory and custom staining

The GRF-509 Grandfather Clock is made from rough sawn hickory planks that have a unique band saw cut. This creates a straight grain pattern for a unique aesthetic. For customers who prefer an alternative look, we also offer a circular rough sawn pattern made using a circular saw.

The customer wanted this clock to match perfectly with the existing furniture, which featured the rough sawn texture and the special FC42000 apricot color. To ensure a perfect match, we sent wood and stain samples for the customer’s confirmation. While FC42000 Apricot is not a standard color listed on our website, we are happy to match almost any stain if the customer provides the stain name and number. In the end, we achieved the perfect harmony of wood grain, texture and color.

Polished Brass Elegance and High Performance Movement

This custom grandfather clock features polished brass elements including pendulums, weights and an intricately designed brass dial. The dial itself is a standout feature with raised brass Arabic numerals, a moving moon phase dial, an intricate corner and center design and a small seconds hand. Three winding ports are elegantly located on the dial to control the clock’s timing, striking and striking mechanisms.

The GRF-509 is equipped with the Kieninger MSU triple chime-winding movement, renowned for its performance and reliability.The MSU comes standard on the 500 series of timepieces and includes a 7-day strike mechanism, an automatic luminescent silencer and a movable moon phase dial. For customers seeking greater durability and performance, we offer the option of upgrading to the Kieninger KSU caliber.

An example of timeless design

The polished brass dial is complemented by intricately designed counterweights that perfectly complement the elegant appearance of this timepiece. The chime selector switch is located near the 3 o’clock position, enabling the user to choose from three classic melodies, while the mute and automatic shut-off controls are located near the 9 o’clock position.

More than just a timepiece, this clock is a functional work of art. The moon phase dial, a hallmark of traditional grandfather clocks for centuries, tracks the changing phases of the moon throughout the monthly cycle.Every element of the GRF-509 Grandfather Clock combines beauty, craftsmanship and functionality.

7-Day Movement for Easy Timekeeping

The GRF-509’s movement is designed for convenience. It only needs to be wound every seven days, ensuring accuracy and ease of use. When the clock is set to silent mode, only the center weight drops, silencing the chime and striking mechanism while maintaining the timekeeping function.

Customer Satisfaction

After completing the clock, we followed up with the customer to make sure they were satisfied. Their response was exactly what we hoped for:

“Yes, it has been delivered and the clock looks fantastic! I like it very much. Thanks!”

The feedback from our customers made us realize that the reason we stay in our business is to bring joy to our customers with timeless handmade items.
