Model #7582 Animated Beer Drinker Wall Clock
 
Before the cuckoo came into vogue many other animated figures were used on Black Forest clocks. Bell ringing monks, laughing faces, and the dumpling eater were charming examples.

This clock is an authentic replica of a Black Forest clock of the early Nineteenth Century. The Hand-carved and hand-painted figure takes a drink from his mug, counting the hours and once on the half-hour. His eyes move, arm moves, and the mouth opens. This clock features an enamel dial, antique brass weights. Also available is a chef figure.
