AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Superb collectible music box titled « Nightingale », published by the prestigious House of Fabergé.
Inspired by the nightingale, symbol of poetry and song, this refined piece combines richly decorated fine porcelain, enamel details and a 24 carat gold plated metal mount. Its hand-painted decor depicts a delicate nightingale perched on a flowering cherry branch, standing out on a blue and orange cloisonné-like background.
The domed lid, inspired by an imperial crown, is adorned with scale motifs in green tones and topped with a pink decorative stone. The gold finishes elegantly highlight the contours and reinforce the precious character of the whole.
The box opens to reveal an interior compartment lined with black velvet, ideal for jewelry or small precious objects. It is equipped with a manually wound musical mechanism.
