Schneider 8-Day Railroad House Black Forest Cuckoo Clock with Elongated Front
This remarkable 8-day cuckoo clock by Anton Schneider offers a refined interpretation of the classic railroad house design. Unlike traditional station clocks, this handcrafted masterpiece features an elongated rectangular frame adorned with intricate carvings. Leaves line the peaked top, while vines curl gracefully along the sides and edges, creating a continuous woodland motif.
The cuckoo bird appears through a circular door above the dial, announcing each hour with its traditional call. In a charming twist, the dancing figures are positioned at the lower section of the clock, spinning in harmony with the music. The open base reveals the swinging pendulum framed by curved wooden edges, adding depth and visual intrigue.
Handcrafted in Germany’s Black Forest and powered by an 8-day mechanical movement, this clock blends precision, artistry, and tradition. Its elongated front and distinctive structure make it a rare and elegant addition to any collection of authentic Black Forest cuckoo clocks.
