Cuckoo Clock - Erzgebirge

Product info

This Cuckoo Clock has a special winter scene featuring the beloved, original wooden figurines from the Erzgebirge region of former East Germany. The House has a romantic curved roof in chalet style, with many wonderful carved elements and special details. Especially the winter scene with sled, bird house and "Schwippbogen" salesman is a very unique scene on the Black Forest Cuckoo Clock. The solid wood case has contrasting dark and light stained wood, and a handcrafted shingled roof with handcarved edging around the clockface. The pendulum is also beautifully carved.

The cuckoo opens the door at the full hour, "tweets", and calls with Echo, telling the number of the hour. After the cuckoo on the hour, one of the 12 alternating melodies plays. On the side there is a switch to turn off the music separately, or both the music and cuckoo together. The clock has an automatic night switch off through a light sensor, which automatically turns the cuckoo sound off when it is dark. The clockface and clockhands are made of wood. The Quartz battery clockwork is run by three 1,5V Size C batteries. 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.
