Lucky Hit 24

Music boxes are often stereotyped as a little box with a twirling ballerina playing a little song – this couldn’t be further from the truth! The collectible music box is a popular hobby for music lovers of all stages of life.

Highly sought after collectible music boxes are antique music boxes, traditional music boxes, regue music boxes, and porter music boxes. Ancient music boxes are those that were produced before the First World War, and traditional music boxes have been available since 1900. Another type is the Regue music box which is named after the Swiss company. Regue music boxes can vary in price from $20-$70,000, depending on the type of music box.

There are four “must haves” for collectors of antique music boxes: very large musical boxes such as the piccolo music box, mandolin music box, revolver music box and the orchestra music box. Mandolin music boxes are strung with four strings like a violin.

There are several types of collectible music boxes, including inlaid music boxes, wooden keepsake boxes, carousel music boxes etc. There was nothing more enticing at the country fair than the twirling carousel! You can locate carousel music boxes through many different sources; in specialty boutiques, at estate auctions, through antique dealers, on the internet, and, of course, eBay. The affordability of a carousel music box depends upon its age, functionality, and quality. The Queen herself commissioned a large and ornate carousel music box, featuring very bright moving horses, a medley of calliope music and riders of all ages dressed in clothing of the era.

Exclusive limited-edition Ardleigh Elliott collectible music boxes are a great way to recapture the magic of a favorite childhood toy and your favorite Winnie the Pooh characters.

Imagine an exclusive Ardleigh Elliott collectible music box collection enhancing your home and filling the air with beautiful music.

And of course, Christmas music boxes that feature beautiful winter scenes and Christmas carols are always perennial favorites. Christmas collectible music boxes, with their animated effects, novel lighting, and custom holiday melodies, are a treat to look at and a true pleasure to listen to. They make amazing corporate gifts and are also a fabulous treat for yourself.
