Schneider 8-Day Black Forest Chalet Cuckoo Clock with Sawmill Scene and Glass Dial

This handcrafted 8-day German cuckoo clock by Anton Schneider brings the charm of a working sawmill to life. The chalet’s detailed design features exposed timbers, flower-box windows, and a small bell tower that rings in time with the cuckoo’s call. Its most striking feature is the transparent glass clock dial, which reveals the intricate mechanical movement inside, offering a fascinating view into the artistry of traditional clockmaking.

Below the balcony, a lively sawmill scene comes to life. A horse-drawn wagon carries logs as the driver moves the reins in rhythm with the music. Two woodcutters work in harmony; one chops with an axe while the other saws at a workbench. A waterwheel gently turns beside the mill, completing the charming forest scene. Above, dancers spin on the balcony to the melodies of “Edelweiss” and “The Happy Wanderer.”

This authentic Black Forest mechanical cuckoo clock combines motion, music, and expert craftsmanship into a unique work of German artistry.
