Schneider 12 Inch Black Forest Painted Sunflowers 8 Day Movement Cuckoo Clock

Product Review

This original Schneider chalet style cuckoo clock comes straight from the Black Forest region of Germany. It features beautifully hand-painted sunflowers, an individually hand-laid shingled roof, and two squirrels that come to life with every strike and call of the cuckoo. The carved wooden cuckoo on this clock calls out on both the half and full hour. With its subtle antique staining and exquisite detail, this clock is sure to complement every home and add charm to any space. The cuckoo operates on 8-day movement and serves as a functional time keeper if wound weekly.

The Schneider Cuckoo Clock Company

Anton Schneider began producing cuckoo clocks in 1848 in his farmhouse in Schonach. Now in its 6th generation of artisan cuckoo clock makers, Schneider continues to produce cuckoo clocks with the high-quality craftsmanship and intricate detailing that has become synonymous with the Black Forest region. Today, the Schneider Factory is one of the largest and most modern cuckoo clock factories in the Black Forest. Despite their size, Schneider continues to hand carve every cuckoo clock, utilizing traditional artisan methods and quality craftsmanship. Schneider's high standards for clock design extend to their workers as well. New woodcarvers go through extensive training, and many Schneider clock makers stay with the company for at least twenty years. Because of this, Schneider is one of the leading cuckoo clock makers in the entire world.
