Description
A Linden Black Forest alarm clock, likely from the mid-20th century (circa 1940s–1960s). It features a signature ornate, gilded frame decorated with leaf motifs. Most vintage Linden models are mechanical wind-up timepieces, requiring manual winding via keys on the back. While many were standard desk or bedside alarm clocks, the brand also produced travel clocks in leather cases and musical versions that played tunes. Produced in West Germany, a region historically famous for cuckoo and precision clocks. 6"H x 5"L Good condition.
