Friedrich Eisenlohr of Furtwangen, Germany first submitted the design as part of a contest for the Grand Duchy of Baden. His inspiration was a railroad guard’s house overrun by vines and leaves. When the clock strikes the hour or half-hour the door opens, a cuckoo appears and calls along with the clock’s gong strike.This clock is hand-made in the Black Forest in Germany. The mechanical brass movement is driven by two weights and time escapes with the tick of a traditional pendulum. The cuckoo call sound is made by two wooden whistles with bellows inside the clock case. Even the packaging has an old-world charm, as only paper is used. The factory packing is made of recycled materials. This clock makes a great gift for the young and old alike. Show more
