Antique Hanau silver miniature birdcage with a fixed bird, dating from 1850–1900, weighing 23.1 g, in fair condition with heavy wear and possibly missing small parts, featuring thick silver bars, a hand-soldered construction and a nicely cast bird, with the top hook broken.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Old Hanau silver miniature birdcage with a fixed little bird.

What makes this specimen still appealing

I see in this piece:
• thick free-standing silver rods
• hand-soldered construction
• nicely cast little bird

Those are features of better Hanau quality.

The hook on top appears to be broken.
