Play Fair Bronze Bell

1900 - 1920

Sold by Sinclairs Antiques and Interiors

Description

This is a charming bronze bell, dated 1905, with an inscription reading "PLAYFAIR W.A.D 1905." The bell exhibits a beautiful patina, indicative of its age and historical character. Its smooth, polished surface is complemented by a series of concentric rings near the base, adding to its elegant and functional design.

The bell features a solid mounting bracket at the top, designed with a hole for hanging or securing it in place. The craftsmanship suggests it was made with durability and purpose, potentially for use in a maritime, military, or institutional setting.

The Play fair W.A.D inscription hints at a possible manufacturer or organizational affiliation, likely connected to British engineering or production during the early 20th century. The bell remains in wonderful antique condition, making it a striking piece for collectors or those with an interest in historical artefacts.
