Be enchanted by this cuckoo clock, an authentic miniature chalet that celebrates the industriousness and joy of alpine life. Every detail of this masterful wooden sculpture is a tribute to the craftsmanship of Val Gardena, capable of transforming timekeeping into pure visual poetry.
The structure, which stands 47 cm tall, is a complex multi-level architecture. Admire the finely carved shingled roof culminating in a bell tower, beneath which two pairs of figures, painted in vibrant folk costumes (red, blue, white), dance dynamically on a balcony decorated with heart carvings and planters. The scene continues in the central part, where, flanking the Roman numeral dial, two microcosms unfold: a charming watermill and, to the right, a workshop where a craftsman is busy working wood, surrounded by his tools.
The finishes, meticulously crafted with a skillful play of natural wood tones, enhance the grain and three-dimensionality. The details, from the mill's sky-blue flowing water to the pinecones serving as weights, are meticulously hand-painted. In line with our tradition, for sizes up to 56 cm like this 47 cm model, the work is made of precious maple wood, chosen for its compact grain and perfect rendering of the intricate carvings.
