Vintage Reuge Sainte-Croix Swiss Music Box 72-Note All-Beethoven Thuya Burl

Sonate Nº 2 - Clair de Lune (Moonlight Sonata). Symphonie (Ode to Joy) All three composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Veneered in genuine Thuya burl - a rare exotic wood found only in the Atlas Mountains of Africa, prized for its deep red-brown tones and swirling grain. Original paper label on base confirms and documents the material.

Gilt brass lyre clasp on front - Reuge's signature decorative motif. All original labels intact and legible. Natural age patina on exterior - no cracks, splits, or repairs. NOTE: One of four base foot pegs is missing. All other components fully original and intact.

Replacement pegs are inexpensive and widely available from music box repair suppliers. Questions welcome - happy to provide additional photos or a video of the box playing.
