This handcrafted cuckoo clock is sure to bring out the inner German beer drinker in everyone. Made in the Black Forest region of Germany, this chalet style clock unites two of Germany's most valued cultural traditions: drinking beer and making cuckoo clocks. Every detail on this clock is handcrafted by skilled artisans and made from real Black Forest linden wood, including the little Austrian gentleman that tips his beer stein as the cuckoo chimes! Decorative metal pinecones serve as counterweights to the strikes and cuckoo calls that come on both half and full hours. The intricate detail and reliable craftsmanship on this Schneider cuckoo clock make this a perfect addition to your home.

The Schneider Cuckoo Clock Company
Anton Schneider began producing cuckoo clocks in 1848 in his farmhouse in Schonach. Now in its 6th generation of artisan cuckoo clock makers, Schneider continues to produce cuckoo clocks with the high-quality craftsmanship and intricate detailing that has become synonymous with the Black Forest region. Today, the Schneider Factory is one of the largest and most modern cuckoo clock factories in the Black Forest. Despite their size, Schneider continues to hand carve every cuckoo clock, utilizing traditional artisan methods and quality craftsmanship. Schneider's high standards for clock design extend to their workers as well. New woodcarvers go through extensive training, and many Schneider clock makers stay with the company for at least twenty years. Because of this, Schneider is one of the leading cuckoo clock makers in the entire world.
