19" (48 cm.) A wooden framed base with carved detail and gold leaf finish supports a metal bird cage with brass finial and carrying loop. Inside on a brass perch is a blue and green feathered bird. When wound, the bird flutters his wings and tail feathers, pivots from side to side, opens and closes his beak, and "sings" realistic bird sound. French, circa 1880, attributed to Bontems. Excellent condition.
