- Swiss Station Cylinder Music BoxLocated in New Orleans, LATiny dancers twirl to the melodious tunes produced by this Swiss station cylinder music box. The cylinder is joined by a drum and bells that give richness and depth to the wonderful music the box creates. Music boxes were at the height of fashion in the late 19th century and served as a status symbol for the European gentry.

Today, these ingenious musical masterpieces are highly sought-after by collectors of musical automata...Category
