Antique Swiss Burl Walnut Miniature Music Box, c. Early-1900's

  
Welcome to Antiques & Moore! This listing is for a lovely antique miniature burl walnut music box in square form and sitting on four ball feet. The wood case has beautiful original patina and is banded with a lighter contrasting wood around the top edge.

The box is square with beveled cut corners. Box has a tight hinge and opens and closes correctly. The winding mechanism on the bottom works properly and plays two airs - "Rose-Mary Fox-Trot" and "Barcelona". The original label with the music played remains on the bottom. Measures 3" high and 4" square.

The music is clear with nice volume, however, there is a minor "grind" when playing which most probably indicates the musical mechanism needs to be oiled. The bottom panel of the box can be removed to get to the mechanism but we have elected to leave this to the next owner.
