I have seen several circassian walnut Victrolas that are quite beautiful, but yours is by far my favorite. It's the pattern in the grain of the wood which acts as a kind of Rorschach test. I imagine that you are quite proud to own such a fine example. Thank you for adding it to the Featured Phonograph page.

This is SO AMAZING!!!!
WOW!
Purchasing a Victrola back then was like purchasing brand new TV or something of that nature. But what sets a Victrola apart is that is was like a piece of furniture. Each one is beautiful and has it's own character.
