Beautiful inlaid case with floral and vine pattern on lid within ebonized trim. 16 cylinder playing on triple comb with drum and castonettes mounted beneath. Box is in good working order with lovely tones. It is missing one tooth on short comb on right side facing and additionally with a repaired tooth on the same comb to the left of the missing one. Movement will need some adjustment to improve the manner in which the drum and castonettes are played. We have not disassembled this instrument to see exactly what needs to be adjusted, but it is operable at this time. Underside of lid is original music playlist with titles in French.
