Q. What is the average price of standing clocks?

Answer

A standing clock is also called a grandfather clock or floor clock or even a longcase clock. It is called a standing clock because unlike wall clocks that are hung on the wall the standing clocks are actually kept ‘standing’ on the floor. As the clock is placed on the floor thus it is also called a Floor Clock. These clocks are an intriguingly beautiful piece of craft and have become a collector's item. The average cost of a standing clock can vary from as low as 20000 INR to as high as 5-6 lakhs or even more. A lot of it depends on the condition of the clock. Vintage floor clocks in fine working condition with all original kit and pieces are worth a fortune.
