Condition Overview
Dome Top Bird Cage: The vintage cage features a cylindrical brass-tone metal body with a domed top. The brass band shows typical aged tarnish and patina. The green painted base pan exhibits noticeable paint loss, chipping, and light surface oxidation on both the upper lip and the undercarriage. It includes two vintage molded clear glass seed/water cups that are intact, an interior wooden perch, and a decorative arched wire door with mesh screening that opens smoothly.
Decorative Metal Hoop Stand: The tall floor-standing frame shows overall surface rust, pitting, and weathered finish wear along the primary vertical support rods.
Ornate Cast Iron Base: The heavy, octagonal openwork base features detailed geometric and stylized floral accents. The cast iron shows uniform surface oxidation, rust patina, and typical grime consistent with age but remains physically solid.
