The original Schneider family business, which was founded in 1848 in Schonach, is now in its sixth generation. As the leading German clock manufacturer, they now produce more than 300 cuckoo clock models in 9 different color tones. This Black Forest chalet cuckoo clock is made of meticulously chosen Linden wood with antique stain and accent colors and has hand laid wooden shingles. It features an elaborately hand-carved and painted train, wooden dancers, children and water-wheel. The train circles in front of the entranced children every full hour, when the cuckoo sings and the music starts to play. Every mechanical cuckoo clock has the typical famous cuckoo call that makes a Black Forest clock so unique.

The happy dancing couples are positioned right below the cuckoo bird. The dancers are flanked by a window on each side, featuring bright red shutters and window boxes filled with colorful flowers. At the top of every hour, the wooden figures dance, the water-wheel rotates and the train signal sounds, as two captivating, 22-note Swiss melodies alternately play each hour. The wooden clock face has delicately carved wooden hands, sweeping around the graceful Roman numerals and has the legendary “Schneider” name at the top of the face and “Made In Germany” at the bottom. The cuckoo clock operates on 8-day movement, which means that it only has to be wound once a week. It is also equipped with a manual night shut-off feature, which will allow you to more freely choose a place for your cuckoo clock because you can hang it in any room in your home. You will enjoy the quality, workmanship and reliability of this fine Black Forest cuckoo clock for many years to come. Buy Clocks By Schneider Available At ClockStyle.com…Plus special Shipping!
