30 Note Mechanical Movement - Beautiful Dreamer

<p>Our 30-Note Music Box Movement</p><p>Invented in 1796, the cylinder musical movement was revolutionary! It was the first time people could buy a device to reproduce music they could listen to in their own homes. Mechanical movements that played music came long before the invention of the phonograph and provided the average person with a chance to hear their favorite melodies at any time. With the advent of newer technology, people moved away from the mechanical movement, but nostalgia and an appreciation for vintage items have reignited interest!

However, this 30-note movement is a couple of steps up from that base design, allowing for longer play-time and more note variation. Some music boxes can even have up to 144 notes that can make it feel like you have an orchestra playing right in front of you!
