Collectors will love the Black Forest Cuckoo Clock – 8-Day Movement with Animated Wood-Chopper by Schneider. Crafted in the heart of the Black Forest region, this beautiful clock is hand-carved and made from native linden wood. It features a charming wood chopper who chops wood each time the cuckoo calls, plus bird and double pinecone weights to help keep the time. A hand-spliced shingle roof on the colorful chalet and a gorgeous antique stain complete this high-quality clock. This piece operates with an eight-day movement that requires winding once a week. Artisan and craftsman Anton Schneider began producing cuckoo clocks from his German farmhouse in 1848. Based on those humble beginnings, the Schneider legacy has lasted for six generations, and their clocks are just as beautiful and carefully crafted as they were back then. Known for their love of detail combined with old world handicraft skills, the highly skilled artisans at Schneider labor to produce clocks that are works of art as well as functional timepieces. With a dedicated staff of specialized workers, the Schneider factory based in the heart of the Black Forest is one of the most popular producers of classic cuckoo clocks in the world today. Carved wood clock with antique finish. 8-day movement with weighted winding. Optional manual nighttime shut-off option. 11.8H x 10.6W x 7.1D inches.
