    Description

    Medium Thai temple bell with embossed elephant families holding each other by their trunks.  It is solid cast bronze and very heavy. Antique brown/bronze color tones. The bell was made to look like an old antique that like the original Buddhist bells.
    This bell has a very unique handle with 4 dragon heads.
    This heavy meditation bell was hand forged in Thailand by Land of Simple Treasures bronze smiths. It was made as a cultural rendition of a ritual bell that is used in the Buddhist temples of many Asian countries. As a religious practice, there is usually a metal bell hanging at the entrance of most Thai temples.
    Many people will place this oriental bell in their own sacred space to enhance their spirituality and also use for meditation. The elephant design also is believed to bring good luck, especially since the trunk is up.
    The Buddhist bell is a versatile home or office decoration as they can be placed in many rooms and locations. For instance, they make a splendid desk decor or office wall shelf accents. In your home, they are ideal for the living room coffee table or end table piece.
    One of our favorite ways to decorate with this brass temple bell is to put onto an end table in our living room. All of these decorating ideas will bring the desired Feng Shui affect that we all cherish.
    The elephant bell comes with a brass clapper and makes a wonderful chime when it is rung. There is a loop ring handle at the top so the bell can hang.
    Due to the metal casting and coloration of this type of bronze bell, the actual bell received may vary slightly from the photos in the listing.
    Approximate size:  6" tall x 3" wide at base.
