Description
The piece is an antique Longwy tile featuring a rooster on a farm that is encased in an ornately carved wooden frame. This ingenious piece is also a music box! There is a key on the underside to wind the clockwork music box. Amazingly good condition given the age of this glorious object (over 100 years old!) some signs of use, surface scuffs to the ceramic tile. This music box was playing recently, but we were not able to get the key to work. It is not attached to the bottom of the music box as it should be, but it will be included in the sale if you would like to attempt a repair. (see photos) Does have the capacity to play, but is not currently working since it is not able to be wound.
