This elaborate mechanical singing bird box is executed in tortoiseshell, silver mounting and semi-precious stones by Bontem. The oval enamelled hand-painted lid is depicting four exotic birds.
When the bar is moved to the right, the oval lid opens up which releases the mechanical singing bird. The bird opens and closes its beak, turns around and makes real-like bird sounds. Videos of that are upon request.
The piece is in unblemished condition - it has a working mechanism.
