The circular mechanism holds eight aged metal bells and is operated by turning the prominent iron handle, causing the bells to rotate and ring. The ironwork features decorative hand-forged-style scrolls and curves, while the warm wood backplate is embellished with ornate brass portrait medallions. The naturally aged surfaces and patina of the bells and iron give the piece tremendous Old World character. A distinctive piece of functional folk art that would make an exceptional statement at an entryway, wine cellar, hacienda, country house, restaurant, or European-inspired interior. See less
