This is such a beautiful piece and we are thrilled to be bringing it to market. And in perfect working order. The music box and automation is ran separately by key windup. When the musical wind is pulled, the separate key for the automaton motor is wound and the start/stop actuated, the automaton bursts into life. Three beautifully dressed women begin to come alive. One doing acrobatics and the other two playing their musical instruments among the mature tree of flowers. Measurements are 23 1/2 tall 15 wide by 11 deep.
