Schneider 8-Day Chalet Cuckoo Clock with Beer Drinkers and Rolling Pin Wife
This delightful 8-day Black Forest chalet cuckoo clock by Schneider tells more than just time. It tells a story crafted with authentic German artistry, featuring a bustling Alpine scene full of humor and charm.
At the heart of the action, two men in lederhosen raise and lower their beer mugs in rhythm with the cuckoo call. Standing just behind, a stern housewife wields her rolling pin, landing a playful knock on her husband’s head each hour. Above, dancers twirl gracefully on the balcony while the side-mounted water wheel spins to the cheerful melodies of “Edelweiss” and “The Happy Wanderer.”
The chalet itself is richly decorated with hand-shingled roofing, carved leaf trim, green shutters, floral window boxes, and a stone base, bringing the spirit of the Black Forest to life. A St. Bernard and puppy, together with stacked firewood, add cozy details to the woodland scene.
With its lively animation, authentic cuckoo call, and traditional craftsmanship, this clock is both a timepiece and a storybook scene, ready to enchant for generations.
