A traditional bamboo birdcage purchased in China around 1997. The base is removable, but part of the board is missing. Also, the number "4" attached to the birdcage, how it was attached is unknown now. However, it can be easily attached with thread in four places. The birdcage is fine, but the base is slightly damaged, but it can be repaired. This item features a rounded form and elegant hanging hardware on the top. The lattice is made of thin bamboo, suggesting that the entire cage was assembled by hand. The base has a wooden ring with carvings, and there is a removable tray at the bottom. It is a very beautiful finish for ornamental and display purposes. *As a structural specification, the cage part and the base are removable. Some chipping due to aging can be seen on the base. Recommended for those who like antique Asian folk crafts and natural material crafts. There are traces of repair on a part of the bamboo of the birdcage. Size Guide (External Dimensions) Height: Approximately 330mm without hook Diameter: Approximately 240mm (circular) Although purchased around 1997, it was already treated as an old item at the time, so it is presumed to have been made as a Chinese folk craft or daily necessity before the 1980s. In recent years, such handmade birdcages are rarely available, and they also have value as a collector's item. #AntiqueBirdcage #BambooBirdcage #ChineseFolkCrafts #Xi'anAntique #AsianAntiques #InteriorGoods #RetroBirdcage #HandmadeCrafts #OrientalDecorativeArt #ShowaRetroStyle
