Ivy Vine & Birds 8 Day Mechanical Carved Cuckoo Clock 51cm By SCHNEIDER

An Elegant Design

Attention to detail is easily apparent with this exquisite 8 Day Mechanical Carved Cuckoo Clock by German designer SCHNEIDER, produced from Schonach, in the heart of the Black Forest in Germany.

Measuring 51cm in height, this impressive clock gives the artistic impression of an ivy vine intricately weaving around the body of the clock. The clock features a carved bird at the crown, as well as some additional birds at the base of the clock. Additional details to complete the overall design feature include the clock dial, Roman numerals and hands which are also made from wood. Rounding out this unique clock is a timber pendulum, along with the weights that hang below the clock itself. Whilst simplistic when compared to other cuckoo clock designs, this particular clock catches the eye with its highly contrasting colours of almond and black, providing a visual delight.

This particular clock is an 8 day mechanical run timepiece, and therefore the weights need to be wound once a week. The in-built cuckoo of this clock calls the time each hour and once at half past through a door that opens, with a manual silencing lever should that be preferred. There is no music with this clock.

Benefits of a Mechanical Cuckoo Clock

Black Forest mechanical cuckoo clocks are weight driven and are available in two different movements:

• 1 Day Movement - you wind the clock by pulling the chain and winding the weights once a day
• 8 Day Movement - you wind the clock by pulling the chain and winding the weights once a week

Each mechanical cuckoo clock will have either two or three weights; two weights for cuckoo only and three weights for cuckoo and music. One weight runs the clock movement and hands that show the time and the second weight drives the cuckoo calling mechanism. The cuckoo sound is produced using bellows that push air through two whistles creating the 'cook' and 'coo' sounds respectively. If you choose to also have music with your mechanical cuckoo clock, the third weight drives a traditional mechanical music box movement with a pinned cylinder that plucks notes on a 'comb' to produce a melody.
