The very finest antique music boxes are here – look no further. Here is your chance to own a superb Swiss antique music box by Conchon, one of the finest makers of Swiss music boxes at the end of the nineteenth century, around 1880. External dimensions 25 x 12 x 12 inches 64 x 30.5 X 30.5 cms. Some regard music boxes by this maker to be of the same quality to those by other makers such as Nicole Freres, Lecoultre and Paillard. The musical movement starts and plays the eight popular airs in a sparkling manner ringing six tuned bells with decorative bird strikers. The bells are surmounted by enamelled bees and flowers and can be turned on or off if so desired. The musical arrangements are expressive and harp like in a very pleasing and mellow way. The musical steel comb is perfect and perfectly in tune as can be seen below. All tunes play equally well as in the video selection. Complete with original playlist, the programme has classical and popular tunes including the Waltz from’Faust’, also the march from’La Prophete’ by Meyerbeer. The polished brass movement is housed in a very solid case with a moulded and ebonized base, superbly veneered on all sides with front and lid in walnut veneer with kingwood cross banding. The cushion form lid has inlaid marquetry panels to front and top with imitation hardstone, enamels and boxwood. Exterior in a delicious and beautiful honey colour, interior is ebonized. The whole has been traditionally polished to perfection with a mirror finish. All restored to the highest standards as one can see and hear in the video. Ideal as a decorative object for a collector, or as a conversation piece. Conchon 6 bell music box – YouTube. Antique Music Box: A Unique Christmas Present.
