Can you tell me what I have here and the worth? This is a bowl that is 9 and a half inches across and it looks old. Small chip under outer rim. A little discoloration.

A music box made in Italy. It contains Reuge Swiss Musical Movements. The song it plays is called "It's Impossible." It has fish head shaped legs. The design on the top lid and sides is mainly floral. This music box is to be a Italian music box, wooden with floral inlays, 4 1/4 inches by 2 1/2 inches by 3 1/2 inches, ornate molded brass feet, with Reuge Swiss movement, playing "It's Impossible", non-working activating pin in the lid. It still plays music when winded.
I remember yrs ago she told me it was worth lots of money. She had two Grandfather Clocks and told me this one was the most expensive. I'm not sure how she knew that or how she came about its possession. The key is jammed in the lock but the key is intact. I believe this clock is German, but again, not really sure. Best I can make out on pull chain are the initials FMS with what looks to be an Eagle.
