Authentic Antique Cast Metal Hanging Bell
A wonderful piece of history, this heavy, small-to-medium-sized antique bell would have been used as a dinner bell, a farm bell to call field hands, or possibly a very large cow bell. Its size and robust construction make it a charming accent for any rustic, farmhouse, or industrial-style decor.
Key Features & Condition:
Material: Very heavy cast metal, likely cast iron or a heavy bronze/brass alloy, evidenced by the deep, dark, aged patina. The bell has a satisfying weight and feel.
Design: Classic flared bell shape with three incised decorative lines ringing the base (the "sound ring" area). The top features a solid, heavily rusted metal piece used for mounting (this may be the remnants of a wooden or iron yoke/handle assembly).
Clapper: Contains its original iron clapper attached by a chain link inside the bell, which is also heavily rusted. While the clapper is present, we cannot guarantee the sound quality typical of a restored or new bell due to the age and patina.
Patina: Features a rich, dark patina with areas of surface oxidation/rust, especially on the mounting block and clapper, which adds to its authentic primitive antique charm.
Dimensions (Approximate):
Height (to top of mounting block): Approximately 3.5 inches
Diameter (across the mouth/bottom): Approximately 4.5 inches
Styling & Use:
This bell is an excellent collector's item and a unique conversation piece. It can be displayed on a shelf, used as a rustic door chime
