Description

A rare find, this fabulous figural desk bell was cast in heavy Iron and finished with a bronze patina, in the form of a pig with a quality screwed construction. The mechanical bell can be would from the underside and then rung either by the snout or tail.

I believe German in origin, and dating to the late nineteenth century, c.1890. The pig retains it's original two glass eyes.
