This clock
features an example of the finest hand carving available. The woman and
child are incredibly detailed. You can see the wind rustling in the
folds of her skirt, and the boy in his Lederhosen (traditional
leather pants) by her side. Meanwhile the children of the town are
above, on the balcony, dancing to the music. Two goats look on, expecting
some food.
This
eight-day, musical cuckoo clock features a large 36-note music box with
an excellent sound. This eight-day musical cuckoo clock has a nighttime
shut-off lever so you can turn off the music and cuckoo and leave the
time-keeping function running.
The dial, hands, and numbers and bird are all of solid wood. The
shingles on the roof are individually laid, and all the carvings are
done by hand.
