Loretta reports:
These early 19th century mechanisms have to be among the most remarkable items I've ever seen.

Amazing!
Incredible! The detail in that tiny bird...wow.
Just wow!
Oh my goodness! And the birds have every feather in place! How is that possible?
Reminds me of the one below, but of course the pistols are even more intricate. Why pistols, though? It seems an absurd shape, doesn't it?
