This piece is handmade in Capodimonte ceramic and finished with gold-plating and brass. As the doors open to the lovely “Lara’s Theme” from Dr Zhivago, the old style Reuge Lyre is revealed inside. As they close you are treated to “Edelweiss” from The Sound of Music. At it’s top, this piece features a tiny cherub playing a mandolin or lute. It is a beautiful porcelain musical in the Capodimonte cherub and floral design and measures approximately 9″ in diameter and 15″ high. This Large 15 SIMU Florence Italy Capodimonte Porcelain Musical Lipstick Cigarette Carousel Music Box is a rare find for collectors. It features intricate details and a beautiful design that is sure to impress. Made in Italy before 1900, this music box is a true piece of history. Handmade with care, it is a testament to the skill and artistry of Italian craftsmen. The music box is not working at this time and it does have chips/cracks and I’m sure the brass color is pretty faded from it’s original.
