What a magnificent piece of Black Forest Art!! On top of the Black Forest Chalet Cuckoo Clocks wonderful roof, with its spliced and hand laid wooden shingles, is the bell tower, used to summon the men folk in from the meadows and hills. When the large wooden Cuckoo calls, the bell in the bell tower is moving and instead of the gong, a bell strikes. At the same time the carefully handcarved and handpainted Wood Chopper moves. The music of the 2.36 movement plays Edelweiss or Happy Wanderer) on the hour while the dancing couples rotate and the wood sawing machine (on the side near the waterwheel) works. Note the many levels and decking on this chalet, and the deer who is under the overhang at the water and feed trough (filled with meadow hay), and the trusty St Bernard patiently watching his master work. This masterpiece Black Forest Chalet Cuckoo Clock is 22 inches tall, and there is an automatic night shut-off. Has beautiful wooden hands and dial, and the chain needs to be pulled once a week to wind the clock. Made in the heart of Germanys Black Forest by the Schneider Cuckoo Clock company.
