Cuckoo Clock - Black Forest House Beerdrinker

Product info

This original Black Forest Cuckoo Clock depicts a funny scene from everyday life on the farm. The Black Forest house has a shingled Black Forest roof and is stained in walnut. The house is decorated with filigree carving underneath the roof, a balcony, and miniature lattice windows with heart shutters. The housefront has a suggested stone wall on the lower part. Pine trees and a dog family decorate the housefront. Two young men in their bavarian folklore dress are enjoying a beer, and drink to the cuckoo call. The woman waves with her rolling pin to warn them not to drink too much! The solid-wood cuckoo calls the number of the hour on every full hour (e.g. 3:00 p.m. or 3:00 a.m. 3 times) and once on the half-hour. After the cuckoo calls on the full hour, one of the two alternating melodies plays. During the music, the water wheel starts turning, and the folklore dance figurines turn to the music on the balcony. This model has an automatic night-switch off between 9 p.m. and 8 a.m. Clockface, numbers and clock hands are made of wood. The mechanical clockwork runs for a week.The clock comes in an original box with complete instructions. This classic model is crafted by the Anton Schneider company in Schonach, a family business that started on a farm in 1848 and has developed into one of the largest cuckoo clock producers in the Black Forest.
