Some time between 1929 and 1931 the H. N. White Company started to manufacture brass Clarinets. All three brands of the company carried Clarinets with the King brand comprised of sterling silver bells. The H. N. White Company made all of its own Silver Clarinets and did not stencil any for other companies. In later years, the company did import some wooden Clarinets for the both Cleveland and American Standard brands. In 1940 the company launched a Clarinet that had a silver lining, and after World War II it was reintroduced and named the "Micro-sonic" and later changed to "Silversonic". By 1963 The "Silversonic" and Sterling bells were dropped, but The H. N. White Company continued to manufacture Silver Clarinets until 1960 when all production was dropped. When manufactured with the same care and precision as high-quality wooden instruments, metal flutes and clarinets were shown to be more stable to stay in tune better and to have clearer intonation and more power. Sometime between 1929 and 1931, HN White began manufacturing high-quality metal clarinets. As with his other musical instruments, Mr. White strove for perfection. The three HN White brands; King, Cleveland and American Standard all featured metal construction, but the top-of-the-line 'Silver King' featured solid sterling silver bells.
