Measuring 8″ L x 6″ W x 6 Tall, and weighing over 2 lbs, this unique Vintage Japanese Lacquer Jewelry Music Box Automaton shows a Ballroom Dancing Couple through its TV-type window, & they are one of the most active, spinning, jumping, moving-couple figures I’ve seen. When you watch the video below, you will see how they spin both ways & jump around as the music plays. The tune is “Fascination Waltz” & the name is printed inside the drawer on the wood in the back of the box. HOWEVER, the beauty of this is, however, that it does NOT NEED its light to be seen & enjoyed for its amazing, active, automaton dancing couple–with 2 mirrors behind the dancers on the stage, you will clearly see reflections of the dancers as they move & spin & jump around–see photos & VIDEO below–the effect is awesome! Look over all the photos as part of the description–enlarge, enhance, magnify them–to judge for yourself the fascinating movement & beauty that these dancers actively reveal–they’re almost hypnotic to watch their dancing with the well-chosen music playing! The black lacquer finish of the entire box is hand-painted with Japanese scenes, and highlighted with shining abalone shell chips, or Mother of Pearl, to add to its beauty. If you love the look & the action of these magical dancers in the VIDEO, then perhaps you’ve found a perfect gift for a loved one, or yourself, to give for Christmas or any occasion! Basically, if you’re not happy, then I’m not happy. Please check out my other items. Video will open in a new window. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Decorative Collectibles\Music Boxes”.
