The Seymour tall case clock in the White House, more commonly known as the Oval Office grandfather clock, is an 8-foot-10-inch (269 cm) longcase clock, made between 1795 and 1805 in Boston by John and Thomas Seymour, and has been located in the Oval Office since 1975.[1] Since the presidency of Gerald Ford it has remained one of the few constant features in the office, throughout several renovations.[2][3]
