Grandfather Clock Wedding Anniversary Present Gift

Loading...Please Wait...

Posted October 3, 2009

A grandfather clock has become a very generous, but not uncommon, gift from parents to the bride and groom to be. We have had bridal registry requests for grandfather clocks. Frequently these are families that have grown up with a grandfather clock in their home, and the parents want their children to have the same heartwarming and heirloom quality feel and presence and warmth that is brought from the addition of a grandfather or floor clock to a living room or some other common area of the new couple’s home.

We have had some customers whom have purchased multiple grandfather clocks, one for each of their children when they got married. One individual recently purchased his 4th Floor Clock and proudly proclaimed afterward “I am Done!” His fourth child was soon to be married. All had apparently wanted the antique grandfather clock that was in the home in which they grew up, but the parents were neither ready to give up their clock and also did not want to start a family war over this treasured heirloom. Unfortunately, grandfather clock cloning technology has yet to be perfected :-) , but it’s an interesting idea! Any genetic scientists out there with a blueprint for how this might be accomplished, please get in touch with us.

A grandfather clock or special mantle clock or wall clock as a present for a milestone anniversary, or even a very special birthday, has also been an increasing trend. We have seen many couple buy grandfather clocks for 10th, 20th, 25th, 40, and even 50th wedding anniversaries, among others. Sometimes it is the children of the parents celebrating the special event who purchase this special timepiece. We have had many purchase high-end grandfather clocks, always looking for a good grandfather clock discount or special clock on sale, for a very special birthday.

We applaud this trend and are excited to share in the joy that these gifts bring to their new owners, as well as the satisfaction of the gift givers and present receivers, whomever falls in whichever category.

Clocks of all types make great presents, and as most people know, are also given by corporations to employees to mark very special employee recognition gift occasions, or as employee retirement gifts. Many of our customers have been buying really nice clocks for years to give as gifts to mark a special time with a special timepiece. As our registered trademark says, “ Add Time to Your Life ® ".
