Loricron was established in 1983 by Bernie and Lorraine Krause who’s family emigrated from Germany to the United States in 1956.  In 1981, Bernie’s father built a clock factory in Virginia under the guidance of one of the oldest manufacturers of anniversary clocks in Germany’s Black Forest region. By 1983, Loricron clocks were being assembled in the Virginia factory using parts imported from Germany. Loricron still distributes a quality anniversary clock, now importing them directly from Germany. These anniversary clocks use only the finest German quartz movements and components including a patented pendulum system that has eliminated the fragile suspension spring and its related need for service associated with clocks not equipped with this feature. It is very unusual to have a Loricron clock that needs service.

Loricron also has an ever expanding line of wall, anniversary clocks and mantel clocks in both quartz and keywound, recently they have added several new anniversary clocks.

Today, after 24 years in business, the Krause family has relocated to Asheville, NC where they remain dedicated to high standards of both quality and service.
