This stunning, serpentine Diamond Disc sold for $375 from 1912-1915, and is an outstanding example of the exquisite worksmanship that could be applied to a phonograph cabinet. There was an A version and a B version, the A375 and the B375, in mahogany. The cabinets of each were almost identical. There was also a version of the Louis XV available in Circassian walnut.
