A Unique Clock From The Black Forest

This delightful 8 Day Mechanical Chalet Cuckoo Clock was created by German designer HEKAS, who has been producing high quality cuckoo clocks in the heart of the Black Forest since 1938.

Measuring 38cm in height*, this beautiful clock portrays a delightful scene in the bavarian countryside, featuring a multi level chalet house with a half-timbered facade and a shingled roof. Out the front of the chalet to the right are two wood sawers, sawing wood; whilst a water wheel and a dog are featured to the left. Carved trees adorn the chalet perimeter.

This fascinating scene also includes a clock dial in the centre of the chalet, and a large number of hand painted details. Directly above the clock dial are colourful dancers situated on a balcony, underneath the cuckoo bird. Rounding out this unique clock is a timber pendulum that hangs below the clock itself, along with the weights.

Chalet style cuckoo clocks are the most famous and common type of cuckoo clock, and are often featured in the shape of alpine houses. They usually feature carvings that represent life in the mountain regions of Europe (mainly around Southern Germany, The Black Forest, Switzerland and Austria). This particular clock runs off an 8 day mechanism, and therefore needs to be wound once a week. The in-built cuckoo of this clock calls the time each hour and once at half past through a door that opens, with a manual shut off function that can be activated at any time. An automatic night off function offers additional convenience, whilst music plays on a 36 note music box after the cuckoo calls, providing a more detailed melody than a standard 22 note cuckoo clock music box. After the cuckoo calls, the dancers on the balcony twirl to the music, whilst the wood sawers and the water wheel also twirl, providing a visual delight. There are two melodies that alternate with this clock after the cuckoo calls on the full hour- Edelweiss and Happy Wanderer.

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.
