## Caption

This magnificent and exceptionally rare gold, enamel and diamond-set hour striking musical double singing bird cage with timepiece was made around 1815. 
It is one of just three ever made and is the work of Frères Rochat, three Swiss brothers famous for the sophistication and quality of their movements featuring singing birds. Creations featuring two birds are all the more rare because they are so complicated to produce. 
This extraordinary piece, estimated at CHF 1 -2 million, will be among the highlights to be offered in Part II of the landmark Masterworks of Time collection. The sale will be held on 11 November.
