These would have been  for popping into the cage of an exotic bird and which you might either fill with seed or water.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass is blown and hollow with a form open spout for the bird to get at the contents through - at the top is a simple decoration - there is a hollow blown ball finial and simple frilled clear glass ring collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese were obviously prone to getting lost or broken over the last few hundred years - and the ones that I have listed in my shop date to the early 19th century. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn excellent condition with no chips or cracks. The interior has a little patch of old water staining to it - very minor and not seen if you fill with water or bird seed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight is 5 inches and the diameter is 2 1\/4 inches. The width of the spout section is 3 3\/4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther similar antique birdfeeders can be seen in the book: \"British Glass  1800-1915\" by Charles R Hajdamach, on page 380 (plate 347).  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFair price for these rare survivors.

This will be applied to your order at the checkout.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55943356645755,"sku":"Chest of Drawers: Yellow Room","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/rare-1830s-georgian-glass-bird-feeder-with-bristol-blue-knop-finial-british-707.webp?v=1785051306","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/georgian-glass-bird-feeder-bristol-blue-knop-finial-1830s","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
