    Not my piece. I was in an antique store today, literally unloading my trunk (got decent but not great prices) and the shop owner had a parrot sitting on his desk. The parrot is supposed to be perched on a stand but it looked like someone had twisted the stand apart where it wasn't supposed to come apart. It's apparently one of a pair. One is fine and this one..wasn't.

    Has anyone here had Victorian bronze bits repaired in North America?

    Bronze is simple with silver solder. Any HVAC guy can do it.

    Not mine, and I didn't think to shoot it when I was in the same place. This is an antique piece with patina. Not sure I'd want HVAC tools near it, although it's a thought.
