Charles-Abraham Bruguier was born in Geneva in 1788. Throughout his early professional life he concentrated on automata, working for a number of different manufacturers both in London and Geneva before setting up his own business in Geneva. Bruguier was able to master the technique of re-creating "Bird-Song", far greater than his better known predecessors Jaquet-Droz and Les Freres Rochat. After his death in 1862 his workshops were passed down to his two sons and later to his grandson.
