Unknown lullaby

Hello,

I have an old music box lullaby I dont know the name of which I want to know, but there is a small problem; 2 of the metal teeth have broken off, which causes online tools like shazam or aha music not to recognize it. I have also searched a few lists of lullaby songs to see if I could recognize it from there, but I didnt succeed.
Is there anyone who either knows where I can go to with this specific problem, or knows a lot of lullabies who might be able to recognize the song theirselves?

Trying to find an unknown tune.

Greetings, I've been searching for a couple of days now to no avail. There is this tune by the alias "1805 swiss snuff music box: traditional music box", which has no actual name accredited to it. Can you identify what the original composition/song is?
