    Description

    This is a very old antique bronze bell that was probably made in China. It resembles some of the bells that I have seen that were used on horses. There are Chinese characters stamped on both sides but I do not know what they say. It has a very nice patina and still has the round metal ball inside. The bell is very loud. Measures 3.25" tall x 3.25" wide x 1-5/8" thick. Very nice condition, no cracks. I do not know the age of this bell but it does look very old.
