A Traditional 5 Leaf & Bird Cuckoo Clock Design

Nothing speaks traditional charm quite like this 5 Leaf & Bird Cuckoo Clock, which is a genuine, high quality hand-crafted cuckoo clock, produced by artisan clock makers TRENKLE from Simonswald in the Black Forest region of Germany.

Measuring 25cm in height*, this beautiful clock features a bird carving along with an arrangement of 5 leaves adorning the clock’s body, a design commonly featured on many of the early cuckoo clocks and still make up one of the most popular styles of cuckoo clock carving today. The ornamental leaves around the front of the clock are characteristic of the traditionally carved cuckoo clocks.

The in-built cuckoo of this beautiful clock makes a single call once every 15 minutes, with no full call on the hour. In addition, the little bird sits out permanantly, with no closing door. This clock needs to be wound once a day and does not come with music.

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

*Please note this clock does not come with an on/off lever to silence the cuckoo call. If you would like to silence the cuckoo call you could either stop the pendulum or remove the right side weight

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.
