Here we have a wonderful small musical box playing 4 airs. This perfect example was made by Swiss maker Reuge, who still make high quality Musical boxes to this day!
This box is in pristine condition inside and out and would be ideal to give to someone as a very special gift. Such a luxurious item would, I'm sure be cherished by the recipient for many years to come.
The mechanism is in excellent working order and plays beautifully. It has a 50 note comb and plays 4 wonderful pieces of music. To start the music box, there is a brass control switch to the front.
Moving the switch to the right will start the music and it will play continuously until the button is shifted back to the left again. The case is in as new condition and has an inner glass lid to prevent dust gathering on the mechanism. The outer lid has the most wonderful inlay, featuring an array of flowers and musical instuments.
The music is played to perfection. Clear, crisp notes ring out in faultless succession.
The case measures 9 inches wide by 5 inches deep by 3 inches high. Please see below to watch a video of the music box playing and remember, Musical boxes always sound far richer in person. Video clips never do them justice! Reuge 50 note 4 air - YouTube. Video will open in a new window.
