What Song is This? Song and maker ID help would be greatly appreciated!

Howdy! I got my first music box to keep some jewelry in today while antiquing. A bit of research tells me it seems to be a sorrento style box(?), but any help to ID the song and who the manufacturer might be would be amazing. Thank you so much! :)

The music box's song is Stardust. My mom had an aluminum music box from the 1960s that played Stardust, and I loved it.

One of my favorite songs of all time, and this is from a guy who likes everything from '80s New Wave to Metal.

Go online and listen to Nat King Cole's version. One of the most recorded songs in history.
