Vintage Wooden White and Gold Jewelry Music Box. Red interior. Measures 2 3/4" in height by 8" wide. Good vintage condition. Music works. I do not know what it plays.
This delightful vintage jewelry music box is a classic example of Mid Century nursery or bedroom decor. The wooden exterior is finished in a soft white with elegant gold-painted trim that frames a sweet, stylized illustration of a young boy on the lid. When opened, the box reveals a vibrant red interior, providing a bold contrast to the neutral exterior. Measuring 2.75 inches in height and 8 inches wide, it is perfectly sized for storing cherished trinkets, small jewelry pieces, or mementos.
The mechanical music movement is housed within the wooden frame, offering a gentle melody that perfectly matches the innocent, storybook aesthetic of the piece. These types of boxes were often produced in Japan or Europe during the 1950s and 60s and were popular gifts for children. The combination of hand-painted details and the tactile feel of the wood gives this item a warmth that modern plastic alternatives simply cannot replicate. It would make a wonderful addition to a collection of vintage toys or a unique "something old" gift for a new generation.
This item is vintage, over 50 years old. While the item appears to be in good used condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw, I would reach out prior to sending it.
