Masterfully hand-crafted of Heirloom Porcelain® and embellished with symbols of the nursing profession, this irresistible musical is a truly unique celebration of the people who warm our hearts and keep us well.

“Loving,” Second Issue in the Tender Loving Care Music Box Collection, is a delightful Limoges-style music box featuring a sweet turtle nursing her patient—an adorable little teddybear—back to health. Every detail is intricately hand-painted by expert artisans to capture the loving dedication of invaluable caretakers. From the stethoscope she's using to the traditional nurse’s cap on her head, this fully-sculpted edition abounds with symbols of the nursing profession. In a fitting final touch, the timeless melody of “You Are My Sunshine” plays at the turn of a key.

The turtle’s shell opens on a decorative Limoges-style hinge, and closes with a golden heart-shaped clasp. When opened, the shell provides a perfect space to store small treasures.

Measures 5 inches long (12.7 cm).
