Cuckoo Clock - Bird Design

Product info

This original Black Forest Cuckoo Clock is a classically carved Three-Bird design. The solid wood case stained in walnut is beautifully framed with carved maple leaves and a bird on each side of the clockface. A carved bird sits on top of the clock, ready to take flight.  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 folklore figurines dance in a circle on the balcony. 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.
