Description: | An incomplete copper alloy crotal bell dating to the post-medieval period (1600-1900). The crotal bell is spherical with a rounded lug pierced with a circular hole for suspension. It has two holes on the upper half, symmetrically placed either side of the lug and a round-ended slit at the bottom of the lower half. Part of the body of the bell is missing. Both the upper and lower hemispheres are decorated with the popular 'sunburst' design. The copper alloy is worn and has a dark green patina. The object is 24.91mm tall and can be dated from the 17th to 19th century.
