We have been collecting antique clocks for a very long time and suddenly find ourselves having tons and tons of information. So what does one do in possession of so much Antique Clocks and in general Antique information.

We decided to create a Porthole Into the Universe of Antiques.

German Clocks

If you’re looking for a “real cuckoo clock” that won’t break the bank, this is the clock for you. There’s no electronics, no batteries, just good old clockwork, the way a cuckoo clock is supposed to be.

Yes you have to wind it everyday & yes its not exactly a precision timepiece. NASA won’t be calling to ask the time but that’s part of the charm of this clock. Its brimming with personality.

Note that the weights & chains hang a full six feet below the clock so bare that in mind when choosing a location to display this little gem. Also note that it cuckoos twice an hour, all day & all night. There’s really no practical way to turn it off at night so this might not be for everyone. Personally I don’t notice it when I’m asleep even though my bed is well within earshot of the clock.

This makes a great gift & will add some old world charm to any house. I find myself often standing in front of it, waiting for the bird to come out & sing. Even after many months now I’m still in love with this silly clock. Enjoy.
