Here is a absolutely fantastic Beha cuckoo clock. Its an early piece made by Johann Baptist Beha circa 1860. This clock is extremely exotic and has all the elements an advance collector looks for.
First the clock has an exposed bird. Instead of the cuckoo appearing behind a traditional door, this bird is large and sits exposed in the upper arch of the case. He is positioned so the front 1/3 of his body extends out past the arch into the room making him very prominent. He has articulated wings and beak putting on a wonderful automata display during that call.
Next the clock has a beautiful oil painting on zinc of a lion. This is known as a tinplate cuckoo.
Lastly the clock has a eye turner or Augenwender complication. As the pendulum swings the eyes of the lion look left to right.
The clock is in fantastic original condition.
There are only four known examples of exposed cuckoo clocks with eye automata in this case style. All four have lions incoperated into the motif. We have been fortunate enough to have owned 2 of the 4 known examples. We sold a very similar example from our collection in early 2014
