Description
Mayer, born in Paris in 1935, is a master creator of wooden conjuring automata. The Orange Tree is his reproduction of the famous Robert-Houdin effect and it is the hardest to obtain and most valuable of any of his creations. By turning the handle, the tree will slowly bloom oranges and then two butterflies rise fluttering from the tree holding a silk scarf between them. Hand painted. This includes two copies of the wonderful flip book of the automaton in motion. Condition: Excellent.
