The lantern clock is so named because of the resemblance of the outlines of the clock to a lantern, emphasised by rectangular shaped case with pillars to each side, capped by the domed bell that sits on and covers most of the top of the clock, which is surmounted by a finial.

The lantern clock was developed in England after 1600 and similar versions were developed in other countries, during the 17th century.

They were the first type of clock to be made from brass, (earlier clocks were made from wood and iron) and the first to be widely used in private homes. They were weight driven, and designed to be wall mounted, although often having finials on the bottom of each of the four corners which give the impression of feet.

They were spring driven and only accurate to within about 15 minutes per day. With the invention of more... the pendulum in 1656, which increased accuracy, the works on many lantern clocks were converted by the addition of a pendulum.

Unmodified original lantern clocks are very rare. The original lantern clocks had only one hand, so a lantern clock with two hands is either a conversion, or a later copy, as are most lantern clocks available on the market. less...
