　　DOLD Black Forest Cuckoo Clock, Hunter style

　　Condition: excellent

　　Purchased in Germany 25+ years ago

　　This beautifully-carved Dold musical cuckoo clock speaks of old-world charm and craftsmanship. This clock was hand made in the heart of Germany's Black Forest region. The mechanical brass movement is driven by two weights and time escapes with the tick of a traditional pendulum. The cuckoo call sound is made by two wooden whistles with bellows inside the clock case. This cuckoo clock chimes (cuckoos) every half hour (one cuckoo and one music piece) and at full hour (cuckoos the # of hours and another music piece). The music piece that is played at every full hour differs from one played at the half-hour mark ? music is "Happy wanderer" and "Edelweiss". Original instruction pamphlet included.

　　For more than 40 years, Dold Uhren GmbH manufactured high-quality clocks. One of the leading manufacturers of grandfather-, wall- and cuckoo clocks in Germany. With an affection for tradition and love of the time honored use of wood as a natural artistic medium, Dold Uhren GmbH developed clocks that combine tradition and personal demand for excellence.
