Modern cuckoo clocks
Another of my childhood memories is the weekends we spent at the mountains. We used to arrive home late at night after a long trip, sleepy and wearing pajamas from Barcelona. The house was always freezing but we never complained because a great treasure awaited us: the cuckoo clock.
It was the typical wooden house, nothing extraordinary although for me it was the most precious thing on earth. I could spend hours contemplating it.
Then we grew old and one day it lost its privileged location in the living room and ended up somewhere in the storage room. But the other day it came back to my mind and I thought: why not buying a cuckoo clock for my own house?
So here you have the results of my research: modern cuckoo clocks.
One of the most known design brands is Diamantini et Domeniconi (which is quite expensive indeed).
In these websites Cérises sur la deco and Momento Italia one can find several cuckoo clocks quite expensive but with modern features such as the automatic (and helpful) disconnection of cuckoo sound at night.
In the case of the KooKoo BirdHouse model, you can even choose from 12 different real bird sounds and pick the desired volume.
There are clocks with different shapes, even book alike for a better camouflage on the bookshelf:
