Jere style Owl Music Box Fly Me To The Moon – Large
Wonderful big-eyed fluffy feathered Jere Style Owl Music Box in patinated brass. Old sticker on base reads: “YIP Made in Hong Kong”. The sticker states the music is “Strangers in the Night”. When found the music box was not functioning. The mechanism was replaced and it is now functioning perfectly…but plays “Fly me to the Moon” instead. The owl rotates as the music plays. Turning the owl in the opposite direction will wind the music box.
Rare to find with music box working and still attached. Examples we’ve seen included the owl only, detached from the music box, and claimed to be a C. Jere design. It is not a C. Jere design, but does emulate his style.
Made in the 1960s – 1970s. In perfect repaired condition. Made of artificially patinated cut metal. Big, measures 10½” tall, 6″ at widest.
