August Schwer 8-Day Handcrafted Black Forest Music Timber Frame Chalet Cuckoo Clock with Two Bavarian Beer Drinkers Dancing Figurines Turning Mill Wheel

Beer Drinkers in the famous beer gardens of Germany have long been the driving inspiration behind many Black Forest cuckoo clocks; and this model, by August Schwer has captured the rich and vibrant atmosphere that surrounds this beloved local pastime.

The highly distinct clock dial forms the perfect backdrop to the two figurines in traditional gear and amazing lifelike postures leisurely enjoying their frothy pints of beer while all around them a refreshing forest garden aura has been skillfully woven in with lush Alpine evergreens, logs, woodland foliage, and mill wheel.

The vintage timber frame chalet boasts a stylish, angular design which is further enhanced by its rich and deep walnut finish. Various minute features like decorative paneling, pretty curtained windows, and flower boxes add to the authenticity of the scene and speak volumes for the skill of their craftsman. Even the roof, with the traditional farmhouse style of low slopes to the front and sides, has been laid with individual wooden shingles to carefully match the original version.

Whenever the clock strikes the hour, the two beer drinkers raise their glasses alternatively and toast each other’s health. And once the music box begins its cheerful melody, the miniature brightly costumed traditional dancers on the balcony begin rotating as the mill wheel joins in by revolving as if in celebration of the moment. This captivating timepiece comes to you with the highest standards of design, craftsmanship, and reliability from one of the finest cuckoo clock manufacturers in the region.
