Vintage Rolls-Royce musical decanter set, model Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, 100% complete and in near‑mint condition.
Description from the seller
Very decorative vintage Rolls-Royce drinks set with music box. It concerns a model Rolls-Royce (could be the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost) with a gin bottle with pour spout and 6 small and very thin cordial glasses. If you lift the bottle, a button pops up and the music starts to play. The mechanism is at the bottom and can be wound with a key. The melody is: "How Dry I Am" (Artie Shaw, 1937) (see photo underside).
This is not a faithful replica of the Rolls-Royce, but an impression of it, where the playful aspect of the combination of the drinks set with the music box is the most important.
The car is 34 cm wide, 13 cm deep and with the bottle included 24 cm tall. The car is about 15 cm high. The weight is 2 kg.
The car is made of spray-painted steel and is dark green in color. The wheels are black and throughout the car there are gold-colored elements. The wheels rotate, but do so stiffly. This is very likely intentional, because otherwise the fragile load would roll off the table too easily. It is a model that probably dates from the late 1960s or early 1970s and was made in Japan. The set is still completely intact and shows hardly any signs of use. However, it has a piece of metal behind the left front wheel that was never painted (see photos). This is very likely a manufacturing defect.
The car together with the glassware will be carefully packed and insured for shipment.
