An Piece that could be from Guiseppe Armani, but I don't know how to verify that. So I want to know if its really form him and not a replica, and what it's worth. I got it from an old house that someone bought, together with other valuable antique. So I wouldn't be surprised if its real. It has a certificato di garanzia, with art n.: 499 and controllo n.:8. On the back it has a mark with black marker, it seems. On the side are the letters g. a. engraved and on the bottom is a badge with made in italy taped. The badge and mark could maybe be added later.
I purchased several Helmut Diller Anri music boxes of birds, such as Teals, Mallards, Pintail, Swans, in the 1980's and was wondering if these are of any value? I've seen these sold on auction sites but wasn't sure if the prices they were asking on these sites bear any merit. They play a different song for each type of bird, such as "Gypsy Baron Waltz" for the Pintail and "Swan Song" for the swan. They measure around 4 or 5 inches in diameter. I still have the boxes which were just plain brown corrugated boxes some marked with an Anri sticker and others just with a description of they type of music box.
