Howard Miller Le Francais Grandfather Clock

Perfect for a formal living room, the elegant body of the Howard Miller Le Francais Grandfather Clock makes an unforgettable first impression. Hues of antique gold enhance the carved detail, and a Windsor Cherry finish brings the hardwood body to life. A removable shell overlay on the pediment matches additional overlays on either side, lending a uniformed look that balances the elaborate design. A unique leaf-tip pattern circles the dial and seeded glass door, which locks for security, and the entire unit is elevated on a set of carved bun feet. The aged dial features dual-tone Arabic numerals of metallic gold and umber, protected by a convex glass crystal cover, while the antique brass pendulum and weights are illuminated from within by a light built into the case. This commanding cable-driven piece features a Westminster chime and Kieninger movement, as well as an option to automatically silence the chimes at night. Adjustable levelers under all corners level the clock on uneven or carpeted floors.

The Howard Miller Story
Incomparable workmanship, unsurpassed quality, and a quest for perfection - these were the cornerstones of the company Howard C. Miller founded in 1926, at the age of 21. Even then, Howard Miller understood the need to create products that would be steeped in quality and value.

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.

A highly respected brand, Howard Miller maintains its popularity because of the company's commitment to quality. Every product manufactured at the company's sprawling facility in Zeeland, Michigan, undergoes stringent tests and exceeds industry standards to ensure a lifetime of enjoyment.
