Antique Drum & Bell Music Box by Paillard, c. 1885

A great sounding, good looking drum and bell music box by Paillard. This lovely box plays eight, mainly popular airs of the day. Notice the fantastic bird strikers, along with the double spring that allows the box a longer playing time. Both the bells and the drum can be turned off and on at will. The case is lovely inlaid rosewood, and overall the box has a lovely feel of quality to it.
