CASA
CUCU
Designed by Yuichi Nara
The CUCU clock tells the time with the charming call of a cuckoo, accompanied by the gentle murmur of a brook.
Designed to resemble a simple birdhouse, CUCU can be used as either a wall or table clock.
Crafted from solid chestnut wood, CUCU comes in two different looks: a natural type that highlights the beauty of the wood grain, and a charcoal type with a rich, deep hue. Both are carefully treated with an oil finish to enhance the wood’s warm and organic texture.
Its smooth, comforting texture and the way the wood matures over time add a quiet elegance to your daily life.
A built-in light sensor automatically puts the cuckoo into sleep mode when the room becomes dark, such as at bedtime, ensuring peaceful, quiet nights.
