Description

The listing, Antique ceremonial solid brass bells from india has ended.

This is a winners choice auction. The winner will get his/her choice of one bell with their winning bid. The other will be relisted after the end of this auction. I am always open to gin offers But please dont insult me with low offers on these bells, they are the real deal and will not disappoint. I have added lots and lots of pictures for you to view so please enjoy This is also free shipping as always~

These are Antique ceremonial bells or sarna bells from india. They would have been carried by people parading during celebrations and some would be strung together and worn by elephants in the parade. One is topped with the sacred elephant and the other is etched with a pretty flower design and both are masterfully hand etched each with a different design.
They are solid brass each is just a little over 4 inches high and 3 inches wide at its widest point, see pictures for exact measurements. They sound amazing!
Both are in excellent condition given the age. I would guestimate them to be from 1920's or earlier. These were given to me years ago by a friend from her grandfathers estate. I was told he was in the military and picked these up abroad in India.
They are absolutely beautiful, I have not tried to clean them up as i dont want to take away the beauty they show from age. I will leave it up to the winner.They are true relics!!

thank you for the offer unfortunately there have been bids placed so i can no longer change anything on the auction. Perhaps when i relist the second bell we can arrange for a gin now at that time
