Small Singing Bird Cage |
|
This is a small cage that I built. The bird turns on the perch, flaps his wings and moves his beak and tail in synch with
his singing. There is a handcarved applique of nesting birds on the front of the cage. Stands approximately 11 inches tall.
This is my version of an Oswald moving eye clock. He is handcarved and stands about 11 inches tall. Eyes rotate to indicate
time. Custom motion work to rotate eyes.
The motive force that drives this hand made toy has been around a lot longer than springs and clockwork. It is powered by
sand and gravity. It is wound by rotating the picture. As the sand falls it causes the fiddlers leg and arm to move in a lifelike
manner. He is hand painted in an oak case.
