Cuckoo Clock - Three Birds

Product info

This Black Forest Cuckoo Clock is a typical three-bird design. The wood case is simply stained in walnut, with the clockface framed by carved maple leaves. Left and right of the clock dial, two woodpeckers hammer on the tree, and the carved cuckoo bird is 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 dance figurines turn 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. This clock model is produced by the Anton Schneider company in Schonach, a family business that had its beginning in a farmhouse in 1848, and has grown to be one of the loargest cuckoo clock producers in the area.
