Howard Miller clocks have been crafted at the factory in Zeeland, Michigan since 1929. The wood cases are made in Zeeland, and the clockworks are installed in the Michigan factory. Some of the older Howard Miller clocks have movements that are identified as Kieninger, with the engravings etched onto a plate in the interior.
The label that is embedded into the clock when it opens has the model number along with the specific information like the date when it was officially made. But not all of the Howard Miller come with this label.
Herman Miller (of office furniture fame) started making clocks in the 1900s, having learned the craft from his father in Germany. He bought in as an investor in a furniture company run by his son-in-law but never worked there. By 1937, the furniture company's clockmaking division was turned over to the son of Herman Miller, and the Howard Miller Clock Company was formed, according to the Herman Miller company timeline.
I found a grandfather clock, by Barwick, a Division of the Howard Miller Clock Co., the model # 4885 floor clock has a carved provincial style hardwood case housing a model 155 triple chime, weight-driven movement that is complete with the original brass weights and pendulum. Case height 79 inches. Estimate price is $300-400. The lot was sold for $120. www.liveauctioneers.com/
You do not write in what condition the movement is, the price of the grandfather clock depends on it.
The price of the grandfather clock also depends on the demand in your area.
