Above a narrow cylindrical foot, the body swells outward and then rises into a dome, recalling an early Montgolfière balloon. The closely set bars draw that unusual outline and give the open framework an architectural rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in the early twentieth century, the cage has a silvered finish whose varied patina allows warmer brass tones to show through. A small hinged entry, feeding cup and interior perch retain the details of its original practical function; the circular ring above the substantial ball finial provides a carrying point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday its balloon-like form can be appreciated as a sculptural piece of Indian metalwork. A chest, console, pedestal or large table provides a suitable setting, whether the cage is displayed by itself or grouped with other antique objects. The open structure, aged surface and strong silhouette give it an independent decorative presence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FEA Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44512704626749,"sku":"YN8608","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1883\/4283\/files\/YN8608-bird-cage-on-white-01.jpg?v=1794415937","url":"https:\/\/feahome.com\/products\/antique-indian-silvered-brass-balloon-form-bird-cage-with-ring-finial","provider":"FEA Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
