Questions About Singing Bird
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    How a singing bird box works relies on a clockwork mechanism. Twisting the winder provides power to the motor which then moves the bird and turns the gears that produce music. Both the bird's motion and the tune continue until the motor stops spinning. Find a wide variety of music boxes on 1stDibs.
