Bird & Squirrels 1 Day Mechanical Carved Cuckoo Clock 30cm By HÖNES

A Traditional Cuckoo Clock Design

Attention to detail is easily apparent with this exquisite 1 Day Mechanical Carved Cuckoo Clock by German designer HÖNES from the Black Forest in Germany, where the company was established in 1950.

Measuring 30cm in height*, this beautiful walnut stained clock features a bird carving along with an arrangement of leaves adorning the clock’s body. A similar design of a bird with 5 leaves is a popular style which is commonly featured as a cuckoo clock design, though this particular design instead features one bird at the crown of the clock, and two squirrels - one on either side of the clock dial. The ornamental leaves around the front of the clock surround a wooden clock dial, with the overall appearance rounded out with a timber pendulum.

The in-built cuckoo of this beautiful clock calls the time on the half hour as well as each hour, with a silence mode that is enabled by lifting and pulling a lever should that be preferred. There is no music with this clock and it needs to be wound once a day.

This beautifully designed clock is a charming timepiece, suitable for those looking for a quality traditional cuckoo clock that is reliable at keeping time, whilst keeping in line with design features that use carving methods that have been practised for hundreds of years

Benefits of a Mechanical Cuckoo Clock

Black Forest mechanical cuckoo clocks are weight driven and are available in two different movements:

• 1 Day Movement - you wind the clock by pulling the chain and winding the weights once a day
• 8 Day Movement - you wind the clock by pulling the chain and winding the weights once a week

Each mechanical cuckoo clock will have either two or three weights; two weights for cuckoo only and three weights for cuckoo and music. One weight runs the clock movement and hands that show the time and the second weight drives the cuckoo calling mechanism. The cuckoo sound is produced using bellows that push air through two whistles creating the 'cook' and 'coo' sounds respectively. If you choose to also have music with your mechanical cuckoo clock, the third weight drives a traditional mechanical music box movement with a pinned cylinder that plucks notes on a 'comb' to produce a melody.
