Description from the seller

Exceptional bell, unique model, called "Gear teeth meshing on spiral spring gear, exclusive model". Part of a private collection, one of the most sought-after pieces due to its artisanal craftsmanship, a master goldsmith’s work, with a very subtle refined mechanism and watchmaker’s meticulousness. Its finely chiselled copper base, where the spiral spring underneath drives the hammer. Its thick dome houses the large winding key to be turned with care and gently, a delicate object. On the side a push button that activates the mechanism and lightly tinkles the hammer. See the accompanying photos. For collectors, a beautiful decorative piece with guaranteed impact or for use. The back cover is missing and will probably be redone, but without guarantee; nevertheless it remains a beautiful, unique, and functional object. Fast, careful shipping with tracking and insurance.
