Description:
Overture the Rolls-Royce of music boxes were manufactured by Nicole Frères, Geneva and have by far the best arranged and reproduced music. This music box comes with only one cylinder with four melodies but has a very narrow comb, giving it a much larger arrangement scale and with the large cylinder diameter, a much longer play time. This is a very fine example, with beautiful marquetry on the case and a nice selection of Mozart, Handel and Haydn melodies. Approx. 1870. Not available in auction hall, item will be shipped from Los Angeles, USA. Please contact us for viewing options. Size: Hight 21.59 cm (8.5”), Width 76.2 cm (30”), Depth 34.29 cm (13,5”). Condition: Excellent.
