Musical automaton in the form of an Arab on rectangular wooden base draped with worn red velvet. When the mechanism is activated, the right hand strums the guitar strings, the left hand lifts the guitar neck, the mouth opens and closes, the musician appears to be singing, the head turns from side to side, and the eyelids rise and fall. These actions are accompanied by the sounds of musical mechanism with a sound comb and cylinder. The key is authentic, with the letters ‘LB’ on the grip.
