This Saint Petersburg souvenir music box is a refined wooden decorative piece, featuring vibrant colors, ornamental domes, and painted details that recall the city’s iconic architecture. The base bears the Cyrillic inscription “Санкт-Петербург,” confirming its origin as a traditional souvenir.
The music box is in good overall condition and retains excellent visual appeal thanks to the brightness of the paintwork and the care given to its details. Two crosses are missing from the tops of two domes, a flaw that does not affect the object’s stability or functionality. There is a small area where the paint has slightly chipped, as visible in the photos, but it is a minor detail that does not impact the overall aesthetic.
The musical mechanism works properly and adds a nostalgic, characteristic touch—perfect for collectors, enthusiasts of Russian craftsmanship, or anyone looking for a unique decorative piece.
The item is not originally equipped with a stop mechanism: once wound, the music box continues to play until the spring is fully unwound.
Note: measurements may vary slightly depending on the point of measurement.
