August Schwer 8-Day Handcrafted Black Forest Music Cuckoo Clock with Bear Figurines Hare Animated Squirrel Figurines

Experience the fairy-tale wonder of the Black Forest with this timeless masterpiece by award-winning clockmaker August Schwer. This clock, created with the wildlife enthusiast in mind, is absolutely awash with woodland detail and atmosphere beginning with the outstanding replicas of two magnificent bears flanking either side of it.

Black Forest bears have adorned clock fronts for many years as symbols of indomitable strength and courage–twin qualities that hugely define the spirit of the region. The excellence of the carvings is seen in the lifelike expression and stance of these impressive animals as they gaze out benevolently, yet intently, from the front of the clock. The tranquility of the moment is beautifully captured by the portrayal of a peaceful little hare dozing between these two gentle giants surrounded by familiar emblems of the woodland chalet garden.The animated squirrel figurines that rotate to the sounds of the music box every hour, three-dimensional evergreens, forest shrubs and stones, a water trough, leaning ladder, garden seat, fence, pails, and hewn logs that cover every part of the base also lend to the rich forest aura of the clock

The miniature forest cottage is as impressive in construction as the rest of this magnificent clock with its realistic depiction of the traditional low, sloping roof that was designed by farmers many centuries ago to protect their families from the harsh alpine winters. Its surface is completely covered with individually crafted wooden shingles to lend authenticity to the replica. The chalet house has a charming antique feel to it that’s further enhanced by its decorative paneling, vintage dial, and classic polished walnut tone. This exclusive forest-themed beauty carries the coveted VdS certification that guarantees you the best in design, craftsmanship, and quality from one of the finest manufacturers of cuckoo clocks in the region.
