「History」 This ornate brass cage was designed to house a cricket. Crickets were considered good luck, and this would allow the owner to take his pets with him wherever he went. The lid opens up to allow ease of entry/exit. And perforated holes are cut out for air flow.
「Dimension」 Style 1: 3.5" H x 3.25" L x 3.25" W Style 2: 2.75" H x 3" L x 3" W (with handle)
「Condition」 Good vintage condition. Discoloration/oxidation inside consistent with age and use. Give it a good cleaning if you prefer! Style 2 has a dent on one side.
