Bring the timeless charm of the French countryside into your space with these authentic, antique bird show cages. Sourced directly from regional European estates, these late 19th to early 20th-century primitives are exceptional examples of historic French folk art and utilitarian craftsmanship.
Please note: Cages are sold individually. Please select your preferred stenciled number.
Each cage features its original, heavily patinated chippy green paint, a slatted wooden base with internal partitions, and a rustic iron-wire frame with a functional slide-up door. Beautifully stenciled white numbers add a striking graphic detail, reflecting their historic use as numbered transport or exhibition boxes for small songbirds and canaries.
Perfect for collectors of authentic wabi-sabi decor, these versatile pieces offer endless styling possibilities. Use one as a unique garden accent, or style a few together on a mantel or open shelving to add texture and history to a modern farmhouse aesthetic.
Excellent antique condition with wear consistent with age and utilitarian use. Features a heavily weathered patina, minor rust on wires, and charming variations in the woodwork that emphasize their authentic, time-worn history. Sold as a decorative object. Each one measures 7.5" x 5" x 5".
