This tiny gold ship is a real piece of treasure.
I used to tell my kids that it was made by fairies and I think I could be right!

  • Bummer that the music part is gone. I wish it could be restored.

  • The pins seem to indicate a rise and fall up and down the scale rather than a tune.

  • You can restore that. Stop being lazy and get to your Lathe.

  • Seeing the small ship move up and down made me really happy

  • nice to see

  • The automaton can be a part of a small clock. It dates from the period 1810 up to 1820 , not 1839. Hendrik Strengers, hekaton@hetnet.nl

  • tinkerbell needs to come and fix it! she fixed that other music box!

    lol XD

  • wow, that's beautiful

  • So many things lost in the abyss of time!

  • Fascinating. I'm sure there's someone out there in the various music box societies who could fashion a replacement comb for it.

  • Yep it lost it's tune. I can see the cylinder as it's shaped like a tank's wheel.

  • truly beautiful!
