Swiss Interchangeable 11″ Cylinder Music Box By Mermod Frères

Step into the enchanting world of automated music machines with this exquisite Swiss interchangeable cylinder music box, crafted in the late 1800s by the renowned Mermod Frères of Geneva.

Housed within a splendidly carved oak case, this musical treasure promises to delight both the eyes and the ears. At the heart of this music machine lies a nickel-plated 11″ cylinder movement of impeccable craftsmanship and meticulous engineering. The machine features not one but two 6-tune cylinders, offering a rich and varied repertoire of melodies to suit any mood or occasion. This music box features an innovative zither attachment, which, when lowered, changes the resonance of the sound to resemble a stringed instrument being plucked, adding variety to the listening experience. A Jacot safety check ensures reliable operation, while a tune indicator allows you to effortlessly select your desired melody in any sequence you wish.

With its wonderful craftsmanship and enduring allure, this interchangeable cylinder music box by Mermod Frères is sure to captivate hearts and minds for generations to come.

This music box carries a complete restoration and a one year warranty.
