Black Forest Battery Chalet Kuckulino With Swinging Doll 16cm By TRENKLE

A Traditional Black Forest Quartz Kuckulino

This delightful kuckulino was produced by artisan clock makers TRENKLE from Simonswald in the Black Forest region of Germany.

Measuring 16cm in height*, this beautiful chalet style clock resembles a common clock design shaped as an alpine houses, featuring details that represent life in the mountain regions of Europe (around southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria). This particular clock features a wooden chalet with a timber and brick facade, with a couple dressed in traditional Black Forest attire, and a mountain dog featured out the front, alongside a large tree and a water trough. Additional features include hand painted window shutters and flowers in the windowsills. A wooden clock dial is featured in the centre of the chalet, whilst a green bird is perched on top of the clock dial that moves back and forth, and a swinging doll pendulum hangs below the clock alongside decorative display weights. The doll is a male dressed in traditional attire (Lederhosen). This timepiece is powered by a high quality quartz movement that is accurate at keeping time. It is recommended to change the batteries annually to ensure longevity of your clock mechanism.

This clock comes with an option of 12 different melodies that rotate each hour including: 

• Music Box Dancer
• Muss I Denn Zum (Wooden Heart)
• Lara's Theme - Dr Zhivago
• Mühle im Schwarzwald (Black Forest Mill)
• Barcarole
• Ich weiss nicht, was soll es bedeuten (The Lorelei)
• Oh My Papa
• Fröhlicher Wanderer (Happy Wanderer)

• Edelweiss
• Für Elise (Pour Elise)
• Clementine

Please note that this clock does not feature a cuckoo bird.

What is a Kuckulino Clock?

A kuckulino clock is a small timepiece produced in the Black Forest, featuring carved and chalet designs, along with the traditional swinging doll style. Quaint in size, kuckulino clocks make the cuckoo call each hour, however they do not feature a cuckoo bird popping out, in contrast to a traditional cuckoo clock. Using the three way switch on most kuckulinos, you can alternate between three options- a quiet cuckoo call; alternating through a different melody each hour; or no sound at all. Some kuckulinos do not feature music or a cuckoo call, and instead are purely timepieces. Available at an affordable price point, these delightful mini cuckoo clocks make fantastic gift ideas for adults and children alike, as they add a hint of character to any room in your chosen space.
