Pair of Monumental Chinoiserie Style Painted Iron Pagoda-Form Birdcages
Pair of Monumental Chinoiserie Style Painted Iron Pagoda-Form Birdcages

Pair of Monumental Chinoiserie Style Painted Iron Pagoda-Form Birdcages

By Tony Duquette

Located in Atlanta, GA

An exceptional and highly decorative pair of monumental iron birdcages, each finely modeled in the form of a multi-tiered Chinese pagoda, dating to the mid-to-late 20th century. These towering architectural cages are constructed with a latticework iron frame and lined with tight-gauge mesh, allowing them to house even the smallest of avian occupants. Painted in a soft celadon green, the surfaces exhibit a subtle aged patina, adding to their visual depth and period character. Each cage features a tiered design of diminishing proportions, evoking the elegance and balance of traditional East Asian pagoda architecture. The overhanging, flared rooflines are rendered in sweeping wirework, terminating in scroll finials, and create dramatic shadow play when lit from above. The lowest tier on each cage incorporates a discreet operable door—currently zip-tied shut—for access and cleaning. The substantial square base measures approximately 24 inches wide, with progressive upper stages expanding outward at roughly 25 inches, 33 inches, and 36 inches respectively. Each tower stands at an imposing 80 inches high, making them impressive both architecturally and sculpturally. Sculptural yet functional, this pair may be used as originally intended or reimagined as decorative étagères, conservatory focal points, or dramatic treillage-inspired garden follies...

18th Century Qing Dynasty Fish Shaped Cricket Holder

Located in Incline Village, NV

Uniquely fabulous and highly unusual item for those seeking something different; this 18th century "cricket holder" from the Qing Dynasty is in the shape of a fish and is made of hand wrought metal, with nice detail and an open woven body which provided air to the cricket. A sophisticated clasp locking mechanism on the underneath of the fish kept the pet cricket contained in the caged holder. Obviously this was intact when someone at some point in time tried to remove whatever was inside by making a hole at the base of the tail to get it out (see image). This hand held cricket cage holder is in very nice and all original condition, save for the small hole; not fragile in any way; sturdy in structure with no repairs. For over 1000 years the Chinese have used crickets...

Antique, New and Vintage Bird Cages

Antique, new and vintage bird cages are popular collector’s items, and as decorative accents, they’re versatile. No matter what specific furniture style, color palette or general theme you’ve pursued for your interior, a bird cage can be the perfect centerpiece to draw the eye.

The earliest and most notable uses of bird cages can be traced all the way back to ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, Greece and Rome. In the early 20th century, birds were the most popular indoor pets in America. Today, if you’ve got a bird cage but aren’t keeping a bird as a pet, there are a wealth of bird cage home decor ideas to introduce in any room in your home.

Because of their unique shape, bird cages can help bring much-needed visual flair and textural contrast to a home office. Suspend a bird cage populated with your treasured collectibles over your desk or reading nook in your home office or study, or think of it as housing for a provocative lighting solution and add ceramic chandeliers or candle enclosures to give your workspace a warm nostalgic feel.

There are also several ways to accent a living room, entryway or bedroom with vintage bird cages. When repurposed as home accents, bird cages stand as a centerpiece for dining-table decor with ribbons, fruits and flowers or as a candleholder. A bird cage filled with gourds, acorn squash and pumpkins can add a festive air to meals outdoors during a brisk autumn evening or perhaps brighten up your patio or firepit area for a garden party over the summer. Indoors, pair an old bird cage or two with decorative glass or ceramic sculptures for a focal point, or add your favorite potted plants or other greenery to bring natural elements to a corner of your dining room. Vintage bird cages can serve as unconventional display cases for photography or paintings as well.

On 1stDibs, find a collection of decorative antique, new and vintage bird cages today.
