As the largest importer of authentic Black Forest cuckoo clocks in the North America, River City Cuckoo Clocks supplies over 100 unique styles of these idiosyncratic timepieces. The company gets all of their cuckoo clocks directly from Germany’s Black Forest, ensuring the highest level of quality and craftsmanship. Some of the finishing touches are made once the clocks have been shipped, but all of the various parts and components come straight from the source.

These cuckoo clocks are typically constructed with pine, spruce or linden wood which has been dried for several years. Each cuckoo clock is unique, but certain features like chimes, houses and the iconic cuckoo birds are common on most designs. Styles of cuckoo clocks vary greatly, with economic models starting for less than $100 and extravagant units going for more than $10,000.
