This listing is for the Vintage Reuge CH 3/72 glass music box that you see in the photos. I purchased it at an estate sale in Oregon where I was not told it\'s history. I am guessing that it was made sometime during the middle part of the 20th century. I leave it to the buyer to decide how old it is.
It plays three separate pieces by Mozart one at a time. The little button needs to be pushed to play the next piece. The video shows it playing only one piece and part of another because that is all the time that allows for videos. Including the feet, it measures close to 9 1/2 by 6 inches. Without the feet the glass box measures close to 7 7/8 by 4 3/4 inches.It weighs close to 4 pounds 5 ounces.
The condition is much like you see it in the photo. If it\'s generally very good condition.A close-up shows how one of the feet is darker around the head of the dolphin. There is some imperfection where the glass is joined along a long side and a little bit along a shorter side. I think that something has affected the glue. it might be a manufacturing flaw. A little of the comb looks a little darkened. Those imperfections are shown in closet-ups. There are no cracks or chips. With my naked eye, do not see any scratches.It appears to be working as it should it should work. My photos should give you a good idea of it\'s general condition.
I guarantee this music box to be as described and represented by the photos. The photos are part of the description. Please look at all of them. I allow two business days for shipping, but I usually ship the same or next day if possible. Please note that the lighting in my photos is uneven, and there might be shadows or reflections. The colors on my monitor look close to but not exactly like the actual colors; different monitors may show different colors. I often say that an item measures or weighs \"approximately\" because no measurements are exact, and some things are difficult to measure.
I like to leave response after I know that the item has arrived and that the buyer is satisfied. I reserve the right to cancel any offers without explanation. I sometimes purchase signature delivery for my more valuable packages because of the possibility of them being stolen off of a porch or damaged by weather. I often, but not always, ship the same or next day. Often, I have a double-walled box custom made for larger items, which might result in a short delay. When I use packing peanuts, they are usually made from biodegradable materials.
Please email me with any questions or suggestions. I do not ship on weekends, and I might not be available to answer emails on weekends.
Thanks for looking at my ad.
