Howard Miller Wall Clock - Three Different Types

When you own a Howard Miller wall clock you can expect superior workmanship and unsurpassed quality. Howard C. Miller founded the company in 1926 at the age of twenty-one and left a legacy of attention to detail and craftsmanship. A Howard Miller wall clock comes in three different styles: chiming, non-chiming and Ty Pennington designed.

Chiming Wall Clocks
A Howard Miller wall clock that chimes is fashioned from many different types of hardwoods and veneers, mainly mahogany, oak and cherry. Most have a polished or brushed brass finished dial and they include a pendulum and quartz battery operated movement that plays various songs every quarter hour or every hour. Some have glass and decorative accents in various colors and in many you are able to open a front glass door for easy access to set the time. Some include a volume control and an automatic nighttime chime shut-off which are great options. Some are designed quite simply and some are very ornate with intricate scroll designs and decorative corner ornaments. A Howard Miller wall clock comes in every size and shape imaginable. Many are rectangular in various lengths and widths, some are octagon shaped, some are curved at the top, and others are flat at the top, while still others are round. Most are made of wood, but a few are contemporary and are finished in a satin nickel or antique bronze, while some have a platinum finish. Prices are as varied as the sizes and styles.

Non-Chiming Wall Clocks
A Howard Miller wall clock that is non-chiming is as varied as the chiming wall clocks although they are much smaller in size. Most of them are round but there are also many other shapes as well. Some are made of wood while others include a picture. There is the St. Ives Scottish Golf Clock that gives the feel of a simpler time. Then there is the Romanus Market VI that includes a fruit motif and is elegantly framed in an antique brass bezel and includes an antique brass pendulum. If you prefer a more contemporary look, search no further than the Bergen with its crisp white dial and black bar hour markers or the Paulina that is wrought iron in gold and charcoal gray. All the clocks include quartz battery operated movement.

Ty Pennington Designed Wall Clocks
Most people recognize the name Ty Pennington from the television show Extreme Makeover-Home Edition. Anyone that has watched the show knows that he is an expert craftsman who puts his heart and soul into his designs. A Howard Miller wall clock designed by Ty is sure to please just about everyone. The Solaris, which is a sunburst gallery wall clock, is among my favorite. It is finished in burnished antique gold with vintage antique mirrors. It is simple yet elegant enough to go with any décor. The Islander is made of environmentally friendly bamboo and would look good in any room of your home. All the clocks have quartz battery operated movement.
