Description

This cuckoo clock is not merely a time-teller, but a true piece of sculptural art that celebrates nature and the masterful craftsmanship of Val Gardena. Every detail reveals the passion for manual carving passed down through generations.

Entirely crafted from maple wood, as is traditional for sculptures of this size (23 cm), the clock is finished with a glossy lacquer that enhances the deep grain and rich tones of the wood, recalling the elegance of walnut and oak. Atop it, an imposing deer head, a symbol of strength and longevity, dominates the scene with its large branched antlers.

The entire frame of the central body is richly decorated with relief carvings of oak leaves, voluminous and meticulously defined, which symmetrically frame the classic dial. The Roman numerals and hands have a golden finish. The traditional pinecone-shaped weights, simulating burnished bronze, and the pendulum decorated with a single oak leaf, complete this masterpiece of joinery and horological precision.

Detail & Meaning
La simbologia di questo orologio è profondamente legata alla foresta e alle tradizioni montane. Il <strong>Cervo (o Cervide)</strong> è un simbolo universale di nobiltà, longevità e rigenerazione, grazie al ciclo annuale di perdita e ricrescita delle sue corna. Nelle tradizioni venatorie e alpine, rappresenta la maestosità della natura selvaggia. Le <strong>foglie di Quercia</strong>, che decorano l'intera struttura, simboleggiano forza, resilienza e onore, essendo l'albero sacro per eccellenza in molte culture europee, spesso associato alla saggezza e alla resistenza al tempo. L'unione dei due soggetti celebra la forza inossidabile della natura alpina.
Story
L'orologio a cucù ha una storia affascinante che affonda le radici nella Selva Nera tedesca (Schwarzwald) a partire dal XVII secolo. Originariamente, questi orologi furono sviluppati da abili orologiai e, per la loro cassa, si affidarono presto agli intagliatori locali. Il legno, materiale abbondante, permise di trasformare un semplice meccanismo in una rappresentazione artistica della vita forestale. Il design 'Huntsman' (Cacciatore), con cervi e foglie di quercia, è uno dei modelli più classici e amati, poiché univa la precisione meccanica alla celebrazione delle tradizioni venatorie e della vita alpina, rispecchiando perfettamente l'artigianato tipico delle regioni di montagna, come la stessa Val Gardena, specializzata nell'intaglio ligneo.
