    I'm not thinking antique, but has anyone ever seen similar? It was at my local thrift, clearly has been kept outside, and I think I'm seeing bird droppings on the side. A few loose pieces, a few broken, but some repair pieces inside. Approx 20" long.

    Did not have a chance to clean prior to photographing, sorry about that! I might be just re-donating, but wanted to see if anyone had ever seen similar or could give insight into origin, etc.

    I wasn't aware ,
    that birdies need stairs.
    maybe inside
    there's a place to comb their hair !

    That doesn't look like a bird house to me.....more like an asian temple .

    Hi,
    Really neat bird house. I am getting a "Russian" feel about it, actually one of the old soviet countries.

    Mine is a bit worse for the wear, but at least I know what I have.
