Sorry Sold out
Designed by award winning Koji Murai,from his Pierrot de Pierre Collection and Fantastic Clown Series.
This is new in box, mint condition, from older stock. Made of wood, it measures 11 1/4" high x 5 3/4" wide and has elongated openings on its top and sides to allow the light in. It plays Mozart's Minuet as it's characters who include Polichinelle move to make themselves more prominent.
This Musical box is reminiscent of the traveling Punch and Judy shows... the original of which was Polichinelle by the French creator Laurent Mourguet dating back to circa 1804. The character Guignol that he created later was the main character in the his puppet show which has come to bear his name, i.e. Le Theatre du Guignol!
