Renée Vendrig didn't want a novelty clock.
She wanted the cuckoo tradition rebuilt for a home that already looks considered — matte finish, made out of wood, silent hours from 11pm–6am, a bird that appears once and disappears, not a toy that performs.

Product Details

Taupe Dot Modern Cuckoo Clock with Stand

Setup & how-to videos: Watch the cuckoo clock instruction playlist on YouTube

The Taupe Dot is a modern cuckoo clock designed for contemporary interiors. The soft taupe finish and circular dial create a neutral, balanced presence that works naturally with wood, brick, and light-colored spaces.

This modern cuckoo clock reinterprets the traditional cuckoo clock by removing carved ornamentation and focusing on proportion, structure, and controlled color. The small circular opening reveals the cuckoo bird on the hour, maintaining the familiar mechanism in a simplified, architectural form.

Unlike traditional cuckoo clocks that are limited to wall mounting, this design includes a removable stand. This allows the modern cuckoo clock to be placed on a shelf, desk, or console, or mounted on the wall depending on the space.

Part of the modern cuckoo clock collection, this clock is designed for flexible placement and integration into everyday interiors.

Dimensions

Diameter: 10.3 in (26 cm)
Stand: 2.2 x 7.9 x 3.4 in (5.5 x 20 x 8.5 cm)

Classic Cuckoo Mechanism

Every hour, the cuckoo bird appears with a soft chirp, referencing the traditional cuckoo clock mechanism while fitting into a modern design.

Flexible Placement

This modern cuckoo clock is designed for flexibility. Use the included stand for shelf or desk placement, or mount it on the wall depending on your layout.

Battery-Powered Convenience

Powered by 3 × AA batteries (not included), allowing easy installation without wiring or outlets.

Volume + Mute Control

Adjust the cuckoo sound to your preference or mute it completely when needed.

How to Set Up

  1. Batteries: Insert 3 × AA batteries in the back (not included).
  2. Set the time: Turn the time-setting knob on the back clockwise until the minute hand shows the right time. Never move the hour hand on its own. This keeps the cuckoo in sync.
  3. Set the sound: Use the knob on the back to choose one of three volume levels, or mute.
  4. Place it: Use the stand for a shelf or desk, or remove the stand and hang it on the wall using the keyhole on the back.
  5. Quiet nights: The cuckoo stays silent from 11pm to 6am automatically.

If the cuckoo chirps at the wrong time after setup or shipping, this is normal and easy to fix. Watch the setup videos for step-by-step help.

Other Colors

Also available in Sage, Yellow, and White. Browse more options in the Cloudnola cuckoo clock collection.

FAQ

Does the bird count the hours?
No — the cuckoo chirps once every hour to announce the time. It does not count the number of the hour.

Will it wake me up at night?
No — automatic night silent mode from 11pm to 6am.

Is the night silence based on the clock time or a light sensor?
It's time-based, not a light sensor. The clock uses its own time to determine when to go silent — automatically off from 11pm to 6am.

Can the silent period be changed or turned off?
No — the 11pm to 6am silent period is fixed and cannot be adjusted. If you want sound around the clock, use the mute switch to turn it off and manage it manually.

Can I control the volume?
Yes — three volume levels plus mute, adjusted via the knob on the back.

Wall or shelf?
Both. The removable stand lets it sit on any shelf, desk, or console. Remove the stand and use the keyhole on the back to hang it on the wall.

How do I set the time?
Turn the minute hand clockwise using the time-setting knob on the back. Never move the hour hand independently — this keeps the cuckoo in sync.

What batteries?
3 × AA (not included). Replace annually. Duracell or equivalent recommended.

Very cute and funky little addition for my sons new apartment.

You just officially set the bar for 'cool parent' decor gifts, TWade! That apartment immediately leveled up in personality. Hope he appreciates having elite taste on his walls! ✨🌿

Love the bird sound every hour. Makes me smile. Everyone comments how fun it is. Beautiful too

A clock that delivers guaranteed serotonin and starts conversations? Honestly, we’d be shocked if people didn't notice it. Elite taste looks good on you, Leanna! 🌿✨

Worth the price I think. Only have for a couple weeks. But it makes its own statement. Works well.

My cuckoo clock is beautiful. It’s everything I’d hoped. I love the tweeting birdsong on the hour.

It’s bigger than expected. And the cuckoo chime is erratic. I threw away the notes so now it doesn’t work. Can someone send me the instructions again?

Design is excellent, but internal assembly was very poor. Cables were disconnected, cuckoo was hanging loose as the screws attaching it inside had come loose with one screw missing altogether. It was clear that there had been glue attached when assembled which had come loose.
It took me well over an hour to reconnect cables and reattach cuckoo mechanism and to get it working.

As I say the design is excellent but the actual product itself is poor for what it cost.

I would also add that I was told I should receive it in early June. Goods did not arrive until 24 July.

It’s bigger than it looks. It actually looks clunky in my house either hung up or on a shelf. I love the bird song though.

I love, love, love my clock! It is absolutely a statement piece. Minimalist, high quality art.

My clock is very cute but I ordered a sage green clock and received a white one. The advertisement says it has the ability to turn the sound off at night but you can only do that by taking out the batteries. Not happy about that. Had to put it in a different room from where I intended it to go or it wakes me up.

Hi Mary Ann

It has a volume switch on the back; push it all the way up to mute it.

I LOVE IT!! The little cuckoo is adorable, and it looks sleek and modern on my counter. I have told 3 friends to buy one already :)

I love it! Instructions regarding set up were cryptic. It might be helpful to explain it is a 24 hour clock and you are initially setting it at 6:00 am, the time chime/chirp will start. If the current time is 6:00 pm you have to rotate the time setting knob clockwise 360 degrees.

I purchased this for my mother for her birthday and it was simply perfect! While shipping took a long time, the clock was worth the wait.
