Singing Birdcage Restoration and Repair
|
Typically the mechanism is disassembled, ultrasonically cleaned, lubricated, and reassembled. Bellows are completely taken apart, new replacement air valves are installed if required, and the bellows recovered with the same type material originally used. Whistles are disassembled and cleaned prior to being reinstalled on the bellows.
Birds can be refeathered if requested and a new rug can be installed. Brass cages and bases are not repolished unless specifically requested by the customer. When all the work is completed the finished cage is run to make sure it sings correctly. The example shown here is a Griesbaum Singing Bird Cage that has been completely disassembled for restoration. |
