Description
These German eight-day musical cuckoo clocks feature a man chopping wood in front of his cottage surrounded by hand-carved trees and deer. At the top of every hour the man chops his axe, the waterwheel turns, the dancers revolve, and it plays one of two different twenty-eight note melodies, Edelweiss and the Happy Wanderer.
Three cast iron pine cone weights are suspended beneath the clock case by three separate brass chains. The hand-made pendulum continously swings back and forth which controls the timing of the clock.
Cuckoo bird calls out the half-hour and counts the hour by cuckooing once per hour. Includes a sound shut-off device beneath the base that disables the cuckoo birds calls, the woodchopper, waterwheel, and the music.
Eight-day German Regula movement and Swiss music box.
