Description: | An elaborate copper alloy crotal bell. The bell is made of two beaten hemispheres, soldered together around the middle. The bell is spherical, with a rectangular pierced lug at the top. This hemisphere has two small circular sound hole perforations; the base of the other has two perforations, joined by a slit (also known as the sound hole). The whole bell is decorated with radiating segments, which end in curved ends at the waist. The base has the initials FL on either side of the slit. The surface is smooth and dark green. This bell is post-medieval in date.
