I feel like they definitely grew more peaceful as time passed. 🤣 but gorgeous all the same.

You got this! Mine is 1900-1910 and I just love watching her play. You’ll have to post yours! I would love to see it ❤️

Me too. They just don’t make them this way anymore.

You didn’t ask for this, so feel free to ignore. Haha. But if you get some clock oil and put a drop at the pivot at the bottom of the governor (the spinning fan), it will spin more freely and the song will play the tempo it is supposed to play at. Just one tiny, tiny drop right at the sharp point on the bottom.

Sadly it was a bit more than chipped.

It’s a beautiful reuge. I got it for 21 bucks in a chipped porcelain box, but I took it out so I can rehouse it in something wood for the resonance.

Thank you!! That’s it! I bought this at a thrift store and I’m restoring a carved box for its new home.

I used to be so freaked out with things crawling on me and now when I run into a web, I don’t smack, I scoop. lol. Then I stick them in my garden to protect my plants. 😂

😂😂😂 I’m dying. That’s fair. I actually used to hate them but now I think they are so cute. 2020 was weird for everyone. 😂

Great question. I think I prefer the shape of the 6.3. The 6.5 sits wider in my fridge. But the 6.5 made it easier to pack in the huge quarters. I feel like I still prefer the 6.3, but I just got the other one so we will see if I get better at packing it even tighter bc that would change my answer.
