Threes a crowd and a good sound...
When wound and actuated by start/stop lever to side, the three birds take turns to sing passages of the sequential birdsong, moving beaks, heads and tailfeathers as solos synchronized with the song.
Each bird with dove-grey, black and white feathered plumage, on column perches, bases dressed with cut painted silk flowers and finished with dark green velvet base, under canted-corner rectangular domed cage with hoop and boss top, the gilt gesso base to the canted corner profile bearing floral gilt appliqués and egg-and-diamond frieze, captive key-wind to underside.
Circa 1900
23in. high, 15in. wide and 11in Deep
Point of interest -
At Douglas Fisher, we have an excellent range of single and double singing birds in cages. When you get to three or even four birds singing under one cage, you are suddenly transported into super rare territory. With the use of many more components to undertake this task, each bird takes their turn to sing their own passage of the song. Sizes of cages differ with smaller sizes like this one much in demand due to the intricacy's involved that make it all possible.
