1909Ventilo Automaton Birds in a cage!
Large Antique Singing Double Birds Automaton
Years ago my husband bought this German or Swiss singing bird cage automaton. I believe it was made around the early part of the 20th century. Birds were quite realistic with real feathers and very detailed. You would wind-up it up and the birds would start chirping, they would sing for quite some time. Beautiful gilt wood case. Complicated movement rare piece worked flawlessly.
