Hi Lauren,

That's a dark wood music box that was painted by someone else with an bone color paint
many years ago.

I didn't do the painting so I can't tell you how the finish was achieved.

However, you can take a picture of this piece of furniture to a Lowe's or
Home Depot and ask their paint department how to get that look.

There are a number of products on the market now easily create faux finishes.

Good luck with your project!
