Musical snuff box by BA Bremond
About the Item
Beautiful snuffbox made of pressed horn. The lid depicts a song for cupid
The mechanism plays 2 melodies as written on the original melody sheet. It is signed on the melody sheet on the inside of the lid. It was made in Switzerland and plays as you would expect from a music box of this manufacturer and period.
Because of the general condition of this piece, it can be called very exceptional, all damages and signs of use indicate a past with great care and dedication. It is over 100 years old, so there are some flaws befitting the age of this object.
Late 19th century
