This Schneider Black Forest cuckoo clock has all the rustic charm of a real Black Forest house. This cuckoo clock features a clock peddler and a mill wheel, and both move at the half and full hour with the call of the cuckoo. This clock also features two classic German tunes, whose melodies alternate play at every half and full hour. Constructed from Black Forest linden wood, this clock evokes German excellence and attention to detail, from the hand-painted figures to the hand laid shingled roof. Three pinecone weights hang from the bottom: one to keep the time, one for the cuckoo call, and a third for the music that plays, all on both the half and full hour. A one-day movement means that all features on this cuckoo clock must be wound daily. Enjoy the delights of the Black Forest for years to come with this magnificent cuckoo clock.

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.
