Top quality, hand carved and truly impressive antique clock with 8 music melodies. Over the years we have had the pleasure of owning and selling a number of beautiful Black Forest antiques, but never did we come accross a 19th century Black Forest clock with musical box of this size and with such amazing natural details and patina AND with the original clock and music box inside. And if that was not enough, this finest of Black Forest clocks is top quality carved from top to bottom in the form of a detailed Swiss chalet. Mind you, this very rare antique clock is entirely hand carved out of nutwood only, which is another sign of the quality of the workmanship and the richness of materials. We have added a large variety of photos so that you can see the many incredibly detailed parts of this Swiss chalet, such as the roof and chimney, the many doors, the stacked lumber outside, the doghouse, the outhouse on the side, the striking balconies, the goose sticking its head out through the balcony, the picked fence, the ladder going up to the barn loft, the clock inside the facade of the house, the music box cilinder in the base etc etc. This antique clock from the 1800s really comes with the most realistically carved chalet house you will ever see. To us, that too is a sign that this Black Forest music box...

Antique wooden carved Black Forest game plaque with fox An antique wooden hunting game plaque with impressive carving of a fox and hunting accessoires. Black Forest, executed ca. 1900. Very good condition. This plaque is a splendid addition to every rustic wall decoration. The tradition of wood carving in Brienz dates back to mid of the 19th century. People in the region were looking for new employment opportunities. They used their skills from traditional crafts, carving everyday objects and sculptures, and created a new business. Many woodcarvers were trained in the 'School of Wood Carving, Brienz' which was established in 1884. Around 1900 the woodcarving industry counted ca. 2000 woodcarvers. Brienz woodcarvings were presented on several worlds fairs with great success. With the Gran Tour Tourism wealthy people from all over the word visited the area and took their woodcarving souvenirs home. Today some companies, like 'Huggler Holzbildhauerei' still exist and build traditional sculptures.

Antique Antelope Lithograph by Karl Joseph Brodtmann, 1816 This elegant early 19th-century hand-colored lithograph by the celebrated Swiss natural history artist Karl Joseph Brodtmann depicts two graceful antelope species rendered with remarkable delicacy and refinement. Produced in 1816, the composition combines scientific accuracy with the understated elegance characteristic of the finest European zoological illustration of the period. The print features a young “Corinna Antelope” alongside the larger “Bubalis” antelope, both carefully observed and depicted with soft naturalistic coloration. Their slender legs, refined facial features, and beautifully curved horns are rendered with exceptional subtlety, while the sparse landscape setting enhances the sense of openness and calm. The restrained palette of warm browns, soft creams, and muted greens gives the print a highly sophisticated decorative quality. Karl Joseph Brodtmann was one of the pioneers of natural history lithography and is admired today for his ability to combine scientific precision with artistic elegance. His works were produced during the formative years of lithographic printing and are increasingly sought after by collectors of natural history, safari art...
