Così Fan Tutte Wind-Up Duck On A Bike
Inspired by the Penny Toys from the early 1900s, this collectible, wind-up tin duck pedals about on its bike while the three-blade propeller on its cap spins around.
It comes with a key and measures approximately 7.5” high. Intended for adult collectors only.
Reproduced from an antique piece, it is reminiscent of the nostalgic circus theme in the Coney Island sets designed for the Met Opera’s fantastic production of Così Fan Tutte.

History
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Così fan tutte
Mozart’s third and final collaboration with librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte premiered in 1790. For much of the 19th and early 20th centuries, this comedy about testing the ties of young love was rarely seen on stage, its plot being considered “immoral.” Today it is among the most beloved operas in the repertoire.
