Cuckoo Clock - Black Forest House

Product info

Deep in the forest lies this beautiful Black Forest House with shingled roof and chimney. The life of a shepherd and his sheep is played out at the front of the house.  The shepherd moves his stock in time to the cuckoo call, and his sheep are watching their shepherd closely to see where to go next. Little lattice windows with red heart shutters adorn the half-timbered house facade, and two majestic stag heads are mounted on both sides of the clockface underneath the roof. Beautiful two-tone woodworking is worked into the clockfront above the clockface, including a wooden Edelweiß directly under the cuckoo door. Many lovingly handcrafted details adorn the housefront: A covered woodshed with winter firewood stacked up underneath, a water trough, the faithful farm dog, and of course, the shepherd watching over his sheep.  Carved pine trees provide a backdrop on the left side of the house.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. This clock has a manual night switch off. Clockface, numbers and hands are all made of wood. The mechanical clockwork runs for a whole week. The clock comes in an original box with complete instructions.  This clock model is produced by the Black Forest company Engstler, a family-run business that has been well-known for generations both for its tradition and technical excellence.
