Music box

By Coleman, 22 April, 2021
Description

This music box belonged to my father--he bought it at an antique store in the 1960s. It works well but some of the inlaid design on the cover is missing. I'm in a position of needing to downsize but have no idea what price I should ask for this. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Music box

I’m not an expert, just googling stuff. I did a sold search on eBay and here’s some https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=Antique+Victorian+Swiss+…
Do you know the maker? Also the size might help. Better picture of the label with the 8 Airs might help too.
Only one pic of this one but it does look very similar to yours. So maybe same maker or maybe yours was made in the same style http://www.antiques.com/classified/Music---Instruments/Antique-Music-Bo…

Re: Music box

I'll check out the measurements and get a better photo of the Airs. I also forgot to look for info on the maker...I'm new at this so this information is very helpful. Thank you!
