Up for sale is a beautiful vintage Swiss-made Reuge dancing ballerina music box automaton. This classic mechanical piece features a miniature ballerina in a star-patterned dress who twirls and moves gracefully across the green felt stage. Mechanically, this piece is in perfect working condition. The Swiss Reuge movement winds smoothly, plays beautifully, and the ballerina dances flawlessly without any hesitation or sticking. Please note there is a small crack in the protective shield surrounding the ballerina, as well as a small smudge on it. The wood base, metal trim, and bottom labels show normal vintage character. Please review all high-resolution photos closely to inspect these cosmetic details. The bottom plate retains its original labels, including a red song title sticker for “Anniversary Song” and “Donauwellen” (The Blue Danube Waltz), alongside a classic shop sticker from the renowned New York antique music box specialist, Rita Ford Inc.
