Porter Baroque
A beauty in
both sight and sound, Porter's Baroque Music Box features an inlay
design of the early classic style. 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 150 instruments are
created. Each will be labeled with a certified serial number.
