Cuckoo Clock - Black Forest House Beerdrinker

Product info

"Cheers to our Friendship" is what these two neighbors call out on this original Black Forest Cuckoo Clock with shingled hip roof with two dormer windows. The special feature of this clock is that the clock movement can be seen through the clock dial and housefront under the windows. The friends are sitting together at a table in the garden in front of the house, where you also see a water wheel, a wooden lifting device to transport barrels, and a storage shed for the barrels of beer. The solid wood case is primarily stained in walnut and partially decorated with lighter wood as a beautiful contrast, and many small details such as the miniature windows with red shutters and flower boxes. The solid-wood cuckoo calls the number of the hour on every full hour (e.g. 3:00 p.m. or 3:00 a.m. 3 times) and once on the half-hour. After the cuckoo calls on the full hour, one of the two alternating melodies plays. During the music, the friends lift their beer glasses to drink, the folklore dance figurines turn to the music on the balcony, and the water wheel turns. This model has an automatic night-switch off. Clockface, numbers and clock hands are made of wood. The mechanical clockwork runs for a week. The clock comes in an original box with complete instructions. This classic model is crafted by the Anton Schneider company in Schonach, a family business that started on a farm in 1848 and has developed into one of the largest cuckoo clock producers in the Black Forest.
