Description
A lovely French automaton believed to be from Jean Farkas (1917-2014). With his wife Anne, who was a seamstress and created the costumes, they created and repaired automata. In 1974 they moved from Paris to Brittnay where they opened a workshop museum called “Reflections of the Past”. The museum relocated to Baden in 2006. This beautifully made Turkish magician manipulates a yellow and red cube and cards making them disappear and switch from side to side under the cups, while it turns its head from left to right watching the audience. A lovely music box melody plays as an accompaniment. With a beautiful glass and wood display case. Condition: Excellent.
