Description

Crafted from wicker and wood, this vintage Shanghai weave rooster music box stands as a charming example of mid-20th-century decorative artistry. The piece showcases a meticulously woven rattan surface, forming a delightful avian silhouette with detailed craftsmanship. The rooster's comb and wattle are highlighted with a vibrant red finish, adding a touch of color to the natural, warm patina developed over time. The base continues the woven motif, creating a cohesive, circular platform that supports the rooster figure above. The music box is structurally sound, with minor scuffs and slight wear visible on the base that attest to its age and use, yet do not detract from its overall presentation. The undersides reveal the original mechanism plate and winding key, indicative of its period manufacture. The woven rattan retains its original luster, suggesting careful handling over the years, with no significant damage or repairs evident. Measuring a compact 4 inches in width, 4.25 inches in height, and 4 inches in depth, this piece embodies both form and function, offering an auditory and visual delight. Its size makes it an ideal decorative object, while the charming design captures a playful yet sophisticated aesthetic, reflecting the unique heritage of its Shanghai origins.
