Wood Chopper & Water Wheel LED Battery Chalet Cuckoo Clock 30cm By TRENKLE

An Innovative Black Forest Chalet Cuckoo Clock With LED lights

This unique Battery Chalet Cuckoo Clock By Trenkle is a genuine high quality hand-crafted Black Forest cuckoo clock, produced from Simonswald in the Black Forest region of Germany.

Measuring 30cm in height*, this endearing chalet style cuckoo clock portrays the scene of an alpine chalet in the woodlands of Germany with a shingled roof. The chalet features a wood chopper, a water wheel, a cow, and trees. Chalet cuckoo clocks are the most famous and common type of cuckoo clock, and are often shaped as alpine houses and feature carvings that represent life in the mountain region of Europe (mainly around Southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria). Chalet style cuckoo clocks can range from simple arrangements of carved features to very detailed scenes with many moving parts (known as automaton). The particular automaton for this cuckoo clock include the woodchopper, and water wheel that move when the music plays. What sets this clock apart is the addition of LED lights which light up the cuckoo clock with an illuminated glow when the music plays.

The in-built cuckoo of this beautiful clock calls the time each hour, with an automatic night-time shut-off that is controlled by a light sensor. When the room is dark enough, the cuckoo will no longer sound allowing you a sound sleep, before recommencing as the room lights up again the next morning. There is also a manual override to silence the cuckoo altogether should that be preferred. This particular chalet cuckoo clock also features optional music with 12 different traditional melodies that rotate each hour, however these can also be switched off at any time should that be preferred.

This beautifully designed clock by Trenkle is a charming timepiece, suitable for those looking for a quartz battery cuckoo clock that is reliable at keeping time, whilst keeping in design features using carving methods that have been practised for hundreds of years. 

Benefits of a Quartz Battery Operated Cuckoo Clock

Quartz cuckoo clocks operate differently to mechanical cuckoo clocks. Quartz simply means the clock movement is battery operated. One benefit of a quartz operated cuckoo clock is that they are easier to manage and more hands off than a traditional mechanical cuckoo clock, as they do not require to be wound, and often feature ornamental or decorative weights and chains. 

Quartz cuckoo clocks are available with or without music; the models that come with music play 12 different tunes that alternate each hour. Some models feature the sound of a real cuckoo bird in a forest environment. 

Most quartz cuckoo clocks feature a light sensor for automatic night shut off to automatically mute any sound when the room gets dark.
