This is an antique circa 1890s musical porcelain compote. It has a reticulated design with flowers and gold trim. It has a hand painted river scene. The porcelain is unmarked and the manufacturer is unknown to us. We believe it is French or German. There is some wear to the gold paint. The musical movement is swiss made and features a changing 2 song 36 note movement. I have replaced all the dampers on the note comb and serviced the movement. It is marked with some numbers and a Swiss cross on the govenor assembly. It is in excellent working order. It has the square clock type winding key and a tune label is on the bottom. When the compote is lifted the music begins to play. The music will stop at the end of the song when the compote is place back on the table.    If your speakers are on you should hear a recording of it playing.   Measurements in inches:  Height  = 4.125, Diamater = 8.625, Diameter (base) =   4.75. Dimensions given at maximum points. The item(s) weight is approximately 1 pound 14 ounces.
