Description from the seller
ORIGINAL NAGA heavy temple / priest bell from Bali, Indonesia – incl. custom-made stand (total height on stand approx. 33 cm).
I've never seen a more beautiful temple bell than this: the details are extraordinarily fine, the surface of the brass shines with its high quality and smoothness, and the patina of the old brass is simply breathtaking. I've sold many bells, but never one like this...
This is one of the finest examples of a Balinese temple bell – in the typical form, made of high-quality brass and adorned at the top with a depiction of the Buddha with long ears; a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. A truly beautiful, fully original piece with no restorations or repairs, which exhibits an incredible patina and top-quality craftsmanship.
