Description
This small quartz cuckoo wall clock gives a wall the cosy charm of a traditional cuckoo clock, with a bird in flight spread across the top of its wooden case. Leaves and bunches of grapes frame the case all round, picked out in deeper reddish-brown tones against the warm mahogany colour of the wood, all in a matt finish. At its centre sits a black dial with white Roman numerals and white cut-out hands, a clear, classic face. Above the dial, a little door frames a cheerful yellow cuckoo with a green wing. Beneath the case hang a leaf pendulum and four chains, two carrying pine cone weights and two finishing in small rings. It measures 28cm high, 22cm wide and 13cm deep.
We think it suits a hallway, a living room, a dining room or a study, anywhere a traditional or country feel is welcome. Its compact size means it fits a narrow space between doorways, above a sideboard or beside a dresser, while the leaves, grapes and bird give it plenty of character up close. The cheerful cuckoo adds a playful note that brings a smile to a room, and the rich wood tone sits happily with oak, pine and painted furniture. Leave a clear drop beneath it so the chains, pendulum and weights hang freely.
Inside, a quartz movement keeps the analogue hands turning, powered by three C batteries (MN1400), and the clock has a chime. On the side of the case you will find a volume dial alongside reset and adjust buttons. It hangs from a hook on the wall. To keep the wood looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it out of direct sun and away from damp. Hang it at eye level where the cuckoo and the leafy frame can be seen, and let it bring a little old-world charm to your home.
