Hones Chalet Style One Day Cuckoo Clock Cottage with Hansel, Gretel & Witch

On the hour, every hour, the cuckoo bird will emerge from behind a swinging door above the clock dial and counts out the hour by cuckooing once for each hour (for example: at one o'clock the bird will cuckoo once.  At eight o'clock the bird will cuckoo eight times).  The half hour is announced with one cuckoo call.  Please note, the cuckoo sound on this particular clock cannot be turned off.  The 30 hour all brass mechanical Regula movement, which is produced in the Black Forest of Germany, is wound easily once per day by simply pulling on the chains to raise the two pine cone weights.  One weight powers the time and the other weight powers the cuckoo and cuckoo call.

Two cast iron pine cone weights are suspended beneath the clock case by two separate brass chains.  The hand-carved maple leaf pendulum continuously swings back and forth which controls the timing of the clock.  If your cuckoo clock's timing should ever need adjustment, you can control the speed of your clock by sliding the maple leaf up or down the pendulum stick.  Sliding the maple leaf down causes the cuckoo clock to run slightly slower, while sliding the maple leaf up makes the cuckoo clock run slightly faster.

*Great effort has been made to portray each cuckoo clock as accurately as possible.  However, as with any handmade item, the exact coloration and carving may vary slightly from clock-to-clock.  We consider this to be a special part of their character and will make the one you purchase unique to you, and only you.  This clock is covered by a two-year limited warranty covering workmanship and manufacturers defects.
