There's usually not a big distinction between the two. Our rule is that if the "music box" provides any space (aside from the space for the musical movement) it can also be referred as a "music jewelry box". Although of course the main difference between a standard jewelry box and music jewelry box is one has music and the other does not.

A music box can be interpreted in various ways. One in which its place as an automatic musical instrument. It produces sound from a finely tuned comb, struck by a set of pins that protrude from a rotating cylinder. The term used for the mechanism that produces the melody in a music box is referred to as a “mechanical movement” or “musical movement”. They can vary in physical size and playing time. Depending how many teeth are on the comb (music notes) a single tune (1 full revolution) can play anywhere from 12 seconds up to 50 seconds with a running play time of a few minutes up to half an hour!
Here at Music Box Attic, we offer a range of musical movements. Beginning at the standard 18 note movement up to a 144 note masterpiece. The exact range of musical movements are 18, 23, 30, 36, 3.36, 50, 72, 144 notes.
As you begin to trek through the world of music boxes, you will notice a more profound auditory experience when scaling upwards towards the larger size musical movements. The differences in sound and structure will become apparent. A good analogy for comparison is similar to a piano performance of a novice enthusiast versus a classical virtuoso! Think of the standard 18 note movement as an outline of a tune. It’s just the right amount of notes to be recognizable. Move over to a 72 note movement and you’ll find yourself engulfed in precise arrangement perfectly laid out to reproduce the feel of concertos and operas.
When you add this option our experienced musicians will take a standard file and convert it so the module will play a music box type of sound of your song. They will go note by note and make a fabulous rendition. We have a few musicians that we work with and they have done thousands of songs and are the best at what they do. Cick here to hear some files they have done:

We are offering an option to take your song and covert it to sound like a traditional music box melody (still in digital format). Your tune will be onverted note by note to sound just like a mechanical movement music box, but better, due to the flexibility of the module as well as software sound enhancement. Here are two examples of the previous conversions of songs that our musician has done:
Find many converted songs you can use on our Listening Library or Youtube Song Search
We also suggest browsing for your song on YouTube to see if it has already been converted, this way you can get the music box sound but not pay the additional $75.
