Engstler 42810 QMT Cuckoo Clock
In a world gone wrong, a cuckoo clock couldn’t be more appropriate
One of the most memorable scenes in the Disney canon is in Pinocchio, when the wood-carver Geppetto is first seen in his workshop full of cuckoo clocks, all chiming chaotically out of sync. Even young children seem to be familiar with it, despite the film’s being almost 85 years old.
Charmingly bonkers as a large number of competing cuckoo clocks may be, it’s not something you are ever likely to encounter in real life, even if you live in southern Germany’s Black Forest, where almost all cuckoo clocks are made.
