AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid Christmas music box, animated scene, and lights, shaped like a toy chest; the chest opens and reveals a wintry Christmas scene with a lit mountain chalet where a couple steps out and in, people and pine trees in the snow, but also a sleigh with a rein that moves forward and back. Inside on the top you discover crepe fabric forming a small secret pocket, there is a winding mechanism underneath to operate the music box that sings Silent Night, Holy Night, and a battery compartment to power the light. The music and the light stop when the chest closes. So that you can immediately enjoy your little Wonder, the batteries will be graciously provided except for countries refusing battery shipments, Portugal, Poland and others. A whole collection of these splendid boxes with different scenes will be put up for sale later; please follow my little shop to be able to acquire them and delight your children, young and old. Add this little marvel to your collection today, it could become the centerpiece of it. Happy bidding to all. This Wonder is a vintage item with small signs of wear that may be visible; you are not buying a new item. As with all my items up for auction on this site, this marvel has undergone no cleaning (only dusting), nor modification since purchase. Look carefully at the photos that form part of the description. Any damage not mentioned in the text but visible in the photos is considered described. No shipping outside the EU; if you are outside the European Union you can bid on one of my lots however no claims will be possible in case of problems during transport. Given the new import/export regulations to the USA there will be no shipment to that country anymore. Professional careful shipment, with signature and insurance.

Seller's Story

Passionate about flea markets, and antiques of all kinds since my childhood, I was already selling on this site as an individual, the joy and kindness of the buyers made me understand that it was the right time to get started in my small business, I pay particular attention to the lots offered in order to be able to satisfy you, all my objects benefit from a very light cleaning and no restoration so that you can judge for yourself their quality and condition, so good auction to all and see you soon I hope
