ASIAN ANTIQUE LARGE TEMPLE SINGLE POUR CAST BELL "BRONZE"? - $4,500 - (Canal Winchester, OH)
THE BELL IS OF UNKNOWN MATERIAL AT THIS TIME? I THINK BRONZE OR COPPER, IT IS 60 LBS TO 80 LBS AT LEAST. IT IS AS IN PIC ABOUT 20 INCHES TALL, AND 14 INCHES AROUND THE BOTTOM OF THE BELL. I PURCHASED IT FROM A MAN WHO WORKED FOR A LARGE ANTIQUE CORP. THAT DID ALOT OF ASAIN MARKET ANTIQUES AND SWORDS BACK IN THE 60'S AND 70'S. HE TOLD ME THE BELL WAS REMOVED FROM A TEMPLE THAT WAS BEING TAKEN DOWN AND WAS SOLD. HE LIKED IT AND PURCHASED IT FROM HIS COMPANY. IT HOLDS A FLAT CONTINOUS TONE WHEN HIT WITH THE END OF A WOODEN BELL POLE. VERY NICE AND HOLDS THE TONE WELL. IF ANYONE HAS INFORMATION IT WOULD HELP. I HAVE HAD IT AND WE ARE REALLY NOT IT NEED OF IT. WITH GRANDKIDS THE OFFICE IS MOVING ON TO CHANGE. THE HANGER AND THE BELL STAND WERE ADDED, THEY ARE NOT A PART OF THE ORIGINAL BELL AS IT WAS IN USE IN THE TEMPLE. PAYPAL ONLY, PICK UP IS FINE, I CANT SHIP IT DUE TO THE WEIGHT OF IT. SOMEONE WOULD BE WELCOME TO PURCHASE IT AND HAVE IT PICKED UP.
