Description

The listing, Vintage Sankyo Japan Music Box has ended.

You are bidding on a unique vintage victorian figurine playing the piano. It's in excellent condition and I was told it's from around the 1960's which is the era of heavy porcelain. marked Sankyo Japan on the plastic piece that turns and the other markings underneath that are in pictures listed. It Works perfectly and has no cracks or chips. It measures
about 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide.
I'm not sure what the song is that it plays though.


Sankyo Seiki is a Japanese music box company that started producing music boxes in the aftermath of World War II. Sankyo used the latest automation technology to mass produce affordable music boxes. Sankyo has grown to become the biggest manufacturer of music boxes in the world and supplies music box hardware to other manufacturers and distributors. Sankyo now sells licenses for its music box tunes to cellular phone companies for use as ring tones.

Many of the vintage Japanese music boxes you will find today are made by Sankyo.

You will find a wide variety of vintage Sankyo music boxes online. The most common type is a rectangular wood black lacquered music box. However, you can also find Sankyo music boxes that look like little figurines such as frogs, Santas, Christmas angles, Raggedy Ann, clowns, praying children and much, much more.
