Cuckoo Clock - Chalet

Product info

A country man in folklore clothing enjoys his evening meal in front of this beautifully decorated Black Forest house with red hip roof and bell tower. On the left side under the extended roof, the bavarian dancers are dancing to the music. The solid wood casing is stained in white, with contrasting darker filigree woodwork.   Miniature lattice windows with shutters and flower boxes, as well as a depicted stone wall of wood, a water wheel and a carved and handpainted pine tree adorn the housefront.  A special feature is the beautifully crafted wooden pendulum with Edelweiss Flowers. 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. During the music, the water wheel turns, the hungry man eats, and the dancers turn in a dance circle. 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 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.
