Dating from an earlier tradition of handmade wooden objects, this old cow bell has an appealingly straightforward design. The wood has been carved into a compact, well-formed shape with a distinctly rustic presence. Signs of age across the surface add to its authenticity, while the rich patina gives the material a softly weathered appearance. It is an interesting example of a functional village object that can now be appreciated as a piece of Indian folk décor or included in a collection of old rural artifacts. Good condition. Origin India.
