Antique Singing Song Bird Music Box

By Karl Grriesbaum

Made in Germany

Beautiful little red and black song bird sitting on a perch in a brass cage

Cage bars alternate between twisting and smooth bars

Base is ornate brass with filigree filled ovals

A vine with leaves and 2 red berries wraps around the perch that the bird sits on

Cage has a knob on top with a hoop attached

Sits on 3 little feet

When turned on bird chirps, beak opens and head goes up and down

Read that that the bird is made of solid brass as well covered with feathers

Was told this model was from around the 1930\'s

Bottom is marked Ken D, Germany with, I think a bird logo

Has wind up key and start, pause, and stop switch on bottom

Very nicely done with good attention to details

Hand painted

Measure approx 11.5\" tall x 6.5\" diameter at widest

Everything seems to function with sounds and motion

Very minor signs of wear

Base does have a few very minor spots on it

I\'m not sure if this is a flaw or not or if the berries are supposed to be like this, but both berries on either side of the bird are cracked on top and show white

Bird is a little dusty

Other than that in pretty good shape

Insurance is included in shipping price

If interested in more than one item, can save you some money on shipping by doing combined shipping

Very good shape
