    Good morning CW!
    I’ve had this little bell sitting around a few years after finding it in a thrift store.
    I bought it because it makes the sweetest sound, which really surprised me due to it being cast iron.....I think?
    It’s heavy enough for sure.
    The bell itself is 2 1/2” and 6 3/4” overall.
    But I can’t make out the mark and hope someone here can help me?
    Thanks everyone, your help is appreciated!

    No idea about a category, but I’m sure the kind peeps of CW will correct me.....lol

      I think I solved it...wow
      It appears to be a Paolo Soleri bell.
      Think I’ll try to figure out the age now.
      Help is always appreciated!

      What neat little bell Karen! Looks like you sure have solved your mystery. These certainly aren't your everyday cheap little bell. Lucky find!
