Late 19th Century
A magnificent testament to late 19th-century craftsmanship! This exclusive Monopol music box is equipped with a double comb, producing an exceptionally rich and full sound—a quality for which Monopol is renowned.
Founded in Leipzig, Monopol distinguished itself by the robustness of its mechanisms and the remarkable musical quality of its instruments, directly rivaling the greats such as Polyphon and Symphonion. Their boxes were particularly appreciated for their depth of sound and lasting accuracy.
This example is accompanied by many impressive 55 cm diameter discs.
A rare find and a centerpiece for any serious mechanical music collection.
