Cuckoo Clock - Black Forest House

Product info

A chicken thief gets caught in the act on this Black Forest House Cuckoo Clock. The rooster and his hen look on in front of the natural colored house with beautiful contrasting lightly stained wood. Pine trees, a water trough, and a fenced in water wheel complete the picture. Little lattice windows with red shutters and flower boxes adorn the housefront. A depicted stone wall on the front of the house is made of wood. The cuckoo opens the door at the full hour, "tweets", and calls with Echo, telling the number of the hour. After the cuckoo call, one of the 12 alternating melodies plays. While the music plays, the water wheel turns, and the farmer beats the chicken thief with his broom. The clock has a manual night switch off, and also a light sensor to automatically turn off the cuckoo and music sound when it is dark. The Quartz battery clockwork is run by three 1,5V Size C batteries that are delivered with the clock. The clock comes in an original box with complete instructions. This clock model is produced by the Trenkle company in Simonswald, a family business that has been around for the last 50 years, and prides itself in combining the traditional handcrafting with new technical developments.
