I\'ve been asked to sell a number of clocks.
Offered here is a vintage Black Forest German cuckoo clock with a hunter motif.
The case is made of wood with carved attached dead rabbit and game bird. Over the top is an antlered stag. It is removable- see 5th picture. There is a pouch hanging from the bottom with a rifle. Oak leaves, including the pendulum complete the carvings.
It has double doors, one with a bird and the other with a seated man in front of what looks like a piano.
It measures 11.5 inches wide, not including the top stag piece. It 14 inches long and just over 6 inches deep.
It has three sets of chains and 3 pine cone shaped weights.
The sides have access doors. The back has a removable panel.
The movement is unmarked. There is a paper label Zigeunerbaron Waltzer J. Strauss Frohe Jugend Waltzer. Translated, it meansGypsy Baron Waltzer J. Strauss Merry Youth Waltzer.
I note that the rabbit ear has a repair. The clock has not been tested.
