拍品专文

Isaac Daniel Piguet (1775-1841) and Henry Capt (1773-1841), in partnership from 1802-1811, specialized in musical and automaton watches and boxes. Capt, Piguet’s brother-in-law, was one of the first in Geneva to use the pinned cylinder and tuned-tooth comb musical mechanism.

A closely-related purse-form musical box by the same makers was sold in these Rooms, 26 October 2007, lot 1.
