Watching the gears move and rotate while a beautiful song is playing is mesmerizing . Absolutely gorgeous Antique JUNGHANS Mantel Shelf Musical Alarm Clock. The piece is absolutely stunning.

Junghans is a German watch and clock company founded in 1861 by Erhard Junghans in Schramberg, Germany. It grew to become the world's largest clock and watch manufacturer by 1903, and is known for its innovation, including producing the first German self-winding wristwatch in 1903. After facing difficulties in the late 20th century, the company has been restored and continues to produce timepieces in Schramberg. It is working but I would recommend that you service it.
