Questions About Vintage Bird Box
  • 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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023
    To clean a vintage wood box, wipe it with a soft cloth moistened with mild dish soap and water. You can use a soft-bristled brush and soapy water to remove dirt from the hinges and clasp. Next, use a fresh, damp cloth to wipe away the soap and then finish by drying with a third cloth. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of wood boxes.
