A British 19th-century c.1860 glass bell with a clear spire handle above a large bell with a threaded Vaseline glass trail.
Designed as a decorative wedding present, every wealthy home during the Victorian Period would have had one of these.
Amazing bright glow under Black Uv light, a rare opportunity to add this gem to your collection.
note: images taken with UV light torch, 395nm wavelength.
Glass in fantastic condition, no chips or cracking, note handle and bell are attached by original victorian glue, as a precaution I wouldn't lift the bell just by its handle. Rare to find with clapper, unfortunately this bell no longer has one, buts still a stunning item, any way who wants to ring a glass bell?
Width 14 x Height 30 x Depth of bell 12.5 cm
All items are sensitively and minimally cleaned
Any questions please don't hesitate to drop me a message. I am very happy to pass on any additional information, or images you may need, if you are interested in more than one item I can arrange a combined postage price. Many thanks.

Please be aware that you are purchasing a vintage item. We mention any obvious defects to the glass such as chips, cracks, etc. in our description but there may also be minor manufacturing faults eg. marks from the mould, straw marks and air bubbles, which is normal for glass of this era.
