This Art Deco round bird cage originates from the Anglo Dutch period between 1920 and 1940. Fabricated from brass and wood, the piece displays a gold finish with a lacquered surface, a domed canopy, wirework vertical bars, a suspension loop, a dark turned wooden finial, an original under tray, a feeder, and an interior perch with artificial birds, including one on a swing. The structure stands 60 cm high, 31 cm wide, and 31 cm deep. Place the cage upon a sideboard top within a sunlit conservatory or living space as a decorative object. The design suits interiors requiring vintage character without demanding active restoration.

FAQs

Decorative bird cages became prominent domestic ornaments during the 18th and 19th centuries, evolving from functional animal enclosures into status symbols and interior accents. By the 1920s, brass cages were crafted with refined wirework and geometric or classical elements suited for period living rooms and conservatories.

Bird cages from this period typically featured drawn brass wire soldered to cylindrical horizontal bands, supported by a sheet brass base tray. Tops were formed into domed structures often capped with turned wooden or cast brass finials and hanging loops.

Authentic pieces exhibit evidence of hand-soldered wire joins, natural tarnishing or oxidisation in non-exposed crevices, and solid brass components rather than brass-plated steel. Removable slide-out bases, original perches, and period-appropriate wear on hanging apparatus also signal age.

A vintage bird cage can serve as a sculptural accent on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or window sill. It can also be repurposed as a botanical display filled with potted trailing plants, battery-operated fairy lights, or displayed empty as an architectural focal point.

Dust regularly using a soft microfibre cloth or soft-bristled brush between the wire bars. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or water immersion; unlacquered brass can be gently polished with a specialist metal cleaner applied with cotton wool, followed by buffing.
