"Automaton Whistling Bird Cage By Maison Bontems"
Very beautiful whistling bird automaton from Bontems around 1900. This cage is in varnished brass on the upper part and the base in gilded wood, decorated with interlacing and garlands of flowers. The bird is covered with real feathers, very realistic! This cage has undergone a complete overhaul, mechanism, sealing, various adjustments. It works wonderfully, a discontinuous song, a listening position. The timing is very good due to the good sealing of the bellows. The song of the bird is excellent... Please note that this is an original cage and not a copy as can be found on the market (generally smaller). The height of the cage is approximately 52 cm. The diameter is 29 cm. For more information do not hesitate to call me on 06 08 92 54 55. The cage is visible at my shop in Clermont-Ferrand, Center France. Live prices. For the transport the object is fragile, delivery to be studied with us. Possibility of delivery to certain destinations....
