Before I exposed the movement I had never seen a rotation system quite like hers. I'll share some of the pictures I took for my records although it is probably a very common Thorens system. However you don't come across a great Thorens movement very often anymore.
Happy ending: she works now and when her lid opens she dances to the tune The Happy Wanderer

It is so cool that you were able to repair the music box! It's gorgeous too. I love the colors and thepics of the inner workings :)
ReplyDeleteJennifer, the patterns of the interior kind of remind me of the color schemes in your knits.
ReplyDeleteOh that's awesome!! Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteColor me impressed that you restore music boxes. Wow. The manicure kit came out so awesome. I once bought a giant bag of vintage music box ballerinas that I am still waiting to use on the perfect project.
ReplyDeleteOh my dear Perkins! I wonder about that bag of ballerinas and whether I would recognize them. Emailing you.
