The ultimate gift for composers

If you're looking for a thoughtful gift for a composer, our Miium music boxes with paper strips are a great option.
It lets them write and play their own melodies, turning their ideas into real music.
Handmade and customisable, it's a creative gift they'll remember every time they turn the crank.

This music box works just like an old pianola. You insert a paper strip, turn the crank, and the music plays based on the holes punched into the paper. It’s simple, mechanical, and lets any composer test their ideas or even create a complete piece of music that fits inside the box.

The kit includes everything they need to get started:

• A handmade wooden music box
• The mechanical movement
• A hole puncher
• 5 meters of blank paper (enough for several minutes of music)
• Step-by-step instructions

You can also get extra paper or parts anytime, and we’re here to help if they have questions or want advice on how to adapt a melody to the box.

Whether you're looking for gifts for professional composers, students, or someone who simply loves to create, a Miium music box combines exceptional craftsmanship with a deeply personal touch and could be the best gift idea yet.

This Miium music box isn’t just a decorative item — it’s a creative tool.

Whether they write film scores, classical pieces or original songs, composers and songwriters can use the included paper strips to create their own melodies, just like an old pianola.

It's a hands-on way to experiment with musical ideas or create a meaningful piece from scratch — no screens or software required.

The kit includes everything needed to start composing right away, and it’s simple enough to enjoy at any level.

Every Miium music box is handcrafted in our workshop, using quality materials and carefully tested before it leaves.

We include everything they need to get started — and if they ever need help punching the paper or adapting a melody, they can contact us anytime.

The box arrives safely packed and ready to use, whether it’s for a birthday, a special occasion, or just to surprise someone who loves music and enjoys creating it.

You can also find extra paper rolls and spare parts in our shop, so they can keep composing whenever inspiration strikes. It’s one of the reasons why this is the perfect gift for a composer — practical, creative, and made to last.
