Item Details
Description
A c.1880 Swiss "Sublime Harmonie" music box, featuring two combs, double spring motor, tune indicator, "zither" tone moderator, and ten (10) interchangeable cylinders. This was made on special order for Gautschi & Sons, Philadelphia, importers and dealers to the trade in their day.

Each cylinder is 13" long (pinned length) and 2.5" diameter, and plays six tunes, for a total of 60 selections. Cylinders cleaned, polished and lacquered so that they will remain bright and attractive for many years to come. All of the cylinders are housed in storage drawers built into the table and are easily accessible.

The Sublime Harmonie format provides for a sweet, melodic sound and there are no missing teeth, damper squeaks or other extraneous noises. This is an excellent 140-year-old music box.

The overall dimensions are 45" wide x 23" deep x 41" high.
