Germany, early Biedermeier cuckoo clock, 30 hour, weight driven movement in a wood case with stenciled floral design, fluted porcelain columns with gold accents and a white porcelain dial. Likely by Theodor Ketterer of Furtwangen, c1860. Simple side trim piece is missing from the case. Cuckoo bird is missing its head, beak, and wings. Roof is split and needs to be repaired. Bracket and crest need to be glued back on. Trapezoidal bellows are correct, but will need to be restored. Metal pendulum rod will need to be soldered back to threaded portion for rate adjustment. Enamel dial is excellent. Floral stencil is still colorful. Sold "as is". This clock is very similar to the one shown in J. Miller's book, No. 4 on page 36.
