LIMITED
EDITION
MODEL
AND DISC CABINET
A beauty in both sight
and sound, Porter's Victorian Baroque Music Box features an inlay
design of the early classic style. Motifs of musical instruments
embellish the lid, front and side panels. Unlike more modern
and simple styles, classic early inlay features painstaking and
delicate hand decorating. Each inlay design is registered and
copyrighted exclusively by Porter Music Box Company, Inc.
Every Baroque
instrument contains two of Porter's own combs, each with 76 teeth
that play the richest, fullest music imaginable from an instrument
this size. The complete, spring-wound clockworks, which drive
a
15 1/2" copper-plated disc, are also manufactured in our
shop to the strictest standards. A gentle winding will provide
20 minutes of uninterrupted music, showcasing five octaves and
a dazzling harmonic range. The convenience of an optional electric
motor is often preferred to hand winding.
Production of
the Limited Series will be suspended after 500 instruments are
created. Each will be labeled with a certified serial number.
MATCHING DISC CABINET
Designed especially to
complement Porter's Baroque instrument, the companion cabinet
displays the same fine wood inlay and matching motifs. An heirloom
itself, the cabinet securely stores approximately 200 discs.
