Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC Vehicle History
In the mid-1980s, the time was right to introduce four-wheel drive in other Mercedes-Benz passenger cars; to meet the requirements for saloon cars, however, it would be necessary to redesign the system. At the 1985 International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt am Main, the engineers presented their new four-wheel-drive concept to the general public under the name 4MATIC. This used the latest technology, including electronics, to provide constant traction in any driving situation.
It was the anti-lock braking system (ABS) that had laid the foundations for this technology in 1978. It formed the basis for acceleration skid control (ASR), which not only controlled the linear forces acting between the tyres and the road surface during braking, but also during acceleration, and therefore acted on both the brakes and the engine torque. It was followed by the automatic differential lock (ASD, 1985) and – in the same year – the innovative 4MATIC four-wheel-drive system.
Mother of Pearl Peacock Design Music Wooden Black Bird Girls ...
This wooden music box is elegantly embellished with mother of pearl design of a pair of peacock with fully-opened tail delighting in a romantic moment on a tree wrought by the intricate mother of pearl inlaying technique. The elaborate adornment with the iridescence of intricate mother of pearl designs makes it an impressive item for collection.
The unique Korean traditional lock and key decorated with Madeup (Korean macrame knots) gives the beautiful panache to this music box.
This music box plays the famous Korean folk song, “Arirang.” “Arirang” is so popular in Korea that it might be called the national folk song. The words have to do with the longing and weary feeling of having been jilted by a lover. Arirang was sung by ordinary people during their hard times to help them overcome fatigue and anguish.
