Quartz cuckoo-clock - Heidi House

The manufacture and decoration of a quartz cuckoo clock is identical to a mechanical cuckoo clock. Except for the movement.

It is all made of wood and also hand made. The wood used is usually linden wood. Only the bird, the small door and the hands are made of plastic. The roof is a shingle roof type. Many hundreds of small wooden plates cut and glued by hand. The movement works with 2 batteries type C (LR14).

The cuckoo sings every hour (for example at 09:00, the cuckoo sings 9 times and so on, followed by an echo and a slight river sound in the background). The singing stops automatically thanks to an electronic cell, night detector. You can adjust the volume and stop the cuckoo clock by means of a simple switch on the side.

The pendulum constantly swings from right to left and the weights are decorative, there is no need to wind them up.

Height of the cuckoo clock without the weights and the pendulum 22,5 cm, 8,8 inches high and 25,5 cm, 10 inches wide.

Comes with instructions in several languages.

Included : 2 batteries type C (LR14) (CHF 7,90)
