Shepherd Group Music Box

Step into a peaceful pastoral scene with this beautifully handcrafted music box from KWO (Kunstgewerbe-Werkstätten Olbernhau), a renowned name in traditional German wooden artistry. The “Shepherd Group” features a gentle shepherd tending his flock under the quiet watch of a pine tree, evoking a sense of calm and simplicity from the idyllic countryside.

Crafted in the heart of the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) region, each figure is lovingly detailed—from the shepherd’s welcoming smile to the round, woolly charm of his three white sheep. This delightful tableau is set atop a deep blue base adorned with gold speckles, reminiscent of a starlit night.

At the heart of the piece is a high-quality mechanical 18-note music movement by Sankyo, celebrated for its rich, melodic tones. Wind the box from underneath and enjoy the timeless German lullaby “Weißt du, wieviel Sternlein stehen”, which complements the night-sky theme and adds a touch of nostalgia and wonder.

Perfect for collectors, nature lovers, or as a thoughtful gift for any occasion, this enchanting music box combines tradition, craftsmanship, and heartwarming charm.
