Offered here is a very beautiful high quality musical jewelry box made in Italy with Swiss Reuge musical movement. The Italian-made table features remarkable marquetry ornamentation and Reuge musical movement. In 1865, company founder Charles Reuge established his first musical pocket watch shop in Sainte-Croix, Switzerland. Several years later, Charles\' son Albert opened a music box factory and incorporated the Reuge Musical Movement into unusual objects like compacts, cigarette lighters and eventually tables. As you can see the table is rectangular in shape and features a hinged top. The top is decorated with an exquisite marquetry pattern of florals and foliate scrolling. Tiny strips of light-colored banding accents the lower edge of the table tops and the squared, slender tapered legs. Subtle marquetry flowers in light maple decorate the tops of each leg. The table top opens on a hinge. Once opened, the musical movement\'s stop-button is released and the music plays. This table plays Isola di Capri. The winding key can be found on the underside of table top along with paper makers tags which include the song names, the Reuge logo, and the inscription \"Swiss Musical Movement\". There is some slight crazing to the finish but overall the piece is in excellent condition. The woodwork on this piece is amazing. The inlaid wood is simply beautiful and it is made of only very high quality wood with superb craftsmanship.
