_Reuge Music Box Magic Loupe
'Reuge Music' is the most famous manufacturer of exclusive Swiss music boxes, singing bird boxes, musical pocket watches and related products.
The history of Reuge goes back to 1865, when Charles Reuge opened his first musical pocket watch shop in Sainte-Croix (Switzerland).
In 1886, his son Albert Reuge opened a music box workshop in Sainte-Croix. He soon transformed the workshop into a small factory producing musical mechanisms.
As a leading company in the mechanical music industry, Reuge musical mechanisms were used in a wide variety of objects, such as powder compacts and lighters.
From 1930, under the leadership of Guido Reuge, the company built a new factory and expanded, partly by taking over other companies such as the songbird manufacturers Bontems (Paris), Eschle (Germany), and the record can division of Thorens (Switzerland).
Today, Reuge is the only company that masters the entire spectrum of mechanical music.
