CUCKOO CLOCKS

This eight day musical cuckoo clock is a Hunter's style cuckoo clock. This intricately and deeply carved wood clock features hand-carved hunting scenes. The skill and time involved in creating this clock is evident by the quality of the carvings. The magnificent stag crowns the top of the clock. The dial is encircled by a German hunter's horn with a hunter's carrying pouch hanging down from the horn. The hunter and a ram stand on opposite sides of the wooden dial. Detailed branches and leaves weaving around the clock face complete the forest scene. German folk dancers and the hidden cuckoo bird are placed above the dial.

At the top of each hour and on the half hour, the cuckoo bird pops out of its hiding spot and calls out the time, one distinct call for each hour of the day and one call for each half hour.
On the top of every hour a German folk tune begins to play alternating between Edelweiss or The Happy Wanderer. As the music plays the dancers complete the scene as they revolve around the balcony.

A pendulum hangs below the clock continuously swinging back and forth controlling the timing of the clock. This cuckoo clock is powered by a Regula 30 hour all brass clock movement which is made in the Black Forest of Germany. The clock features the traditional brass pinecone weights hanging beneath the clock on brass chains. The clock is wound by raising the weights beneath the clock on its brass chains. One brass pine cone weight powers the cuckoo and cuckoo call time, one pine cone weight powers the music and moving figures while the other pinecone weight powers the time. The clock dial and hands are made of wood with roman numerals marking the time. The musical and cuckoo bird sounds can be turned on and off by a switch located at the base of the clock.
