Seth Thomas Swiveling Musicians Musical Cuckoo Clock #1

It’s our yearly Spring Clean Up Sales Event!! A 1973 model made by E. SCHMECKENBECHER Cuckoo Clock house in Germany.

Musical Seth Thomas clocks are a considerable rarity and this one gongs on the hour as well as plays a darling double tune music box at the same time. Black Adamantine finish with marbling alpaca as well as gold highlights on the case. This beautiful mantle clock measures17across the base.
