Traditional Black Forest Cuckoo Clock (Mid-20th Century)
Hand-carved in the Black Forest region of Germany, this classic leaf-and-bird (Jagdhaus/Chalet-style) cuckoo clock features a linden wood case adorned with carved leaves and birds. It has a Roman numeral dial with ornate hands, a chain-driven mechanical movement, and two pinecone-shaped weights. The cuckoo emerges from the door above the dial on the hour. Likely produced between the 1950s and 1970s, it is believed to house a Regula mechanical movement and operates as either a 1-day or 8-day clock, depending on winding frequency.
