Chalet 1-day musical cuckoo clock with twin opening doors, two horses and a blacksmith 37cm by Hubert Herr

This chalet 1-day traditional musical cuckoo clock is crafted by renowned Black Forest manufacturer 'Hubert Herr'.

Design

Made from wood sourced locally from the Black Forest, Germany, this chalet 1-day movement musical cuckoo clock depicts a traditional Black Forest house, complete with tiny windows with curtains and colourful flower pots, shows the scene of two horses standing by a blacksmith with anvil. Both the horses and the blacksmith animate on the hour as the clock plays one of two alternating melodies - 'The Happy Wanderer' or 'Edelweiss'. It also features two twin 'cuckoo' doors, one with a little Black Forest man and another with the cuckoo bird. This cuckoo clock is perfect for adding some rustic charm and a dash of life and music to a living room, hallway or study. 

Cuckoo Chime

In one of it's doors, it features a cute cuckoo bird which animates from behind it's little door and sings in the hour (a succession of 'cuckoo' calls, corresponding to the time of day). The sound can be turned off manually at night with a 'sound-off' lever. 

Music

Each hour, after the cuckoo bird has finished chiming, it alternates between two melodies. The sound can be turned off manually at night with a 'sound-off' lever:

• The Happy Wanderer
• Edelweiss

This clock features:

• Dual opening doors, one with an animated little Black Forest man and the other with a cuckoo bird which moves out from behind it's door and chimes with it’s ’cuckoo' sound on the hour.
• Moving pendulum that sways side-to-side.
• Moving horses and blacksmith who hits his hammer onto his anvil. 
• Manual night-time sound shut-off lever.
• 1-day movement (which means it needs to be wound manually only once a day).
• Equipped with a German brass rack-strike movement by Hubert Herr which keeps perfect time as long as the clock is wound.
• Equipped with Swiss-made music box which alternates between playing two different melodies upon the hour - 'The Happy Wanderer' and 'Edelweiss'.
• This clock features an extra thick solid wood case, for extra stability.
• Solid cast-iron 'pine-cone-shaped' weights. 

1-day Movement

This cuckoo clock has 1-day movement meaning each day (or 24 hours) the clock needs to be manually wound. The act of winding the cuckoo clock is very easy and only requires someone to gently pull on the chains so that the weights are drawn back to their utmost position. Gravity does the rest and ensures the clock can be kept perfectly on time as the weight lowers and slowly pulls the chain back through the clock-work mechanism.
