Clock types

”Jockele” clock
is the expression for a little and much favored Black Forest clock with a clock work size of 8 cm in height, 6 cm width and approximately 5 to 6 cm in depth. Often furnished with a porcelain or brass sheet shield. The name goes back to Jacob (Jockele) Herbstreith from Hinterzarten, who around 1790 manufactured these little wall clocks.

”Sorg” clock
The smallest wall clock with an extremely small clock work and a shield height of approximately 7 cm. Named after the clock maker family Sorg in Neustadt, who around 1820 manufactured these type of clocks. Originals are rarely found and well sought after by collectors.
