Howard Miller is going to close after the New Year after 100 years in operation. Production is expected to continue into the fourth quarter of this year, with the company remaining open into early 2026 to sell its inventory of quality finished goods.

History of Howard Miller Clocks

Incomparable workmanship, unsurpassed quality and a quest for perfection. It’s what Howard C. Miller insisted on when he founded Howard Miller Clocks back in 1926, at the age of 21. Even then, Howard Miller Clocks understood the need to create products that would be steeped in quality and value. He expected nothing less than the best. And it was only under those strict conditions that he allowed his name to grace every clock manufactured at our sprawling facility in Zeeland, Michigan. Howard Miller was schooled in the fine art of clockmaking by his father, Herman, in the Black Forest region of Germany. Howard developed into a visionary whose keen sense of innovation spawned a tradition of excellence that has been uncompromised through three generations.

The exquisite movement in many clocks we offer is made by Old World craftsmen employed by the Kieninger Company of Germany. While Howard Miller clocks might once have been primarily considered as gifts for weddings, anniversaries and retirements, the company's expanded line of offerings is enticing more and more buyers who simply desire quality timepieces and furniture in their homes and businesses -- no occasion required.

No matter the price of the purchase, you have the same assurance that Howard C. Miller provided when he began offering clocks more than 99 years ago: That quality be reflected both in the products we create, and in the people whose artistic talents we rely on to manufacture them.
