Description

This magnificent cuckoo clock is not only a time measuring device, but a true sculpture that embodies the soul of mountain traditions. Each piece is crafted with the mastery that distinguishes Val Gardena's artisanal work, transforming precious maple wood – chosen specifically for its 53 cm size – into a case rich with three-dimensional details.

The design reproduces a charming alpine chalet, crowned by a sloping roof with meticulously carved tiles. The central scene is a riot of nature: the dial with Roman numerals and golden hands is framed by an exuberant high-relief of oak leaves and acorns. Dynamic figures such as the perched eagle and the lively vertical hare stand out against the background of the case. Below the dial, the carved hunting horn celebrates forest life.

From the small window in the upper section, two hand-painted figurines, dressed in vibrant colors, add a touch of movement and cheer. The central pendulum, decorated with delicate floral motifs, completes this symphony of craftsmanship and precision. A masterpiece to be handed down, which will bring warmth and the magic of the mountains into any environment.

Detail & Meaning
L'iconografia di questo orologio a cucù è profondamente radicata nella simbologia della Foresta Nera e della vita alpina. Gli elementi scultorei, come le foglie di quercia e le ghiande, simboleggiano forza, longevità e prosperità. L'aquila e la lepre rappresentano rispettivamente l'acutezza visiva e la vitalità della natura incontaminata, mentre il corno da caccia è un richiamo esplicito alla tradizione venatoria e all'ospitalità rustica. L'orologio, strutturato come uno chalet, non è solo un oggetto decorativo, ma un microcosmo che celebra la pace e la semplicità della vita montana.
Story
L'orologio a cucù (cuckoo clock) ha origini ben documentate nella regione della Foresta Nera, nel sud-ovest della Germania, risalenti al XVII secolo. Furono gli artigiani locali a sviluppare il meccanismo peculiare che riproduce il canto dell'uccello. Inizialmente semplici, gli orologi si evolsero nel XIX secolo verso il modello "a casetta" (Bahnhäusle style) e successivamente verso il modello "Chalet" che vediamo qui, caratterizzato da ricche decorazioni scultoree che raffigurano scene di caccia, vita rurale e natura. L'abilità nell'intaglio, perfezionata da generazioni di maestri, ha reso l'orologio a cucù un emblema riconosciuto a livello mondiale di precisione meccanica e arte popolare.
