Carved cuckoo clock

Carved cuckoo clocks are sometimes called the hunter designed or traditional cuckoo clocks. They are a universal cultural icon in many homes as they demonstrate sophisticated carvings and themes.

The origin of the hand-carved cuckoo clock is still not clear but is argued to have been somewhere in the mid-1800s in the Black Forest areas of Germany. In the modern world, they are famous for their meticulous carvings and rich wooden artistry.

Carved cuckoo clocks depict two themes. The first one is the hunting theme with all elements of the game and hunters. The second one is the wildlife-themed cuckoo clock that displays aspects of nature.
